Pdf creation from Canvas

When creating a pdf export of a Canvas it appears that hidden layers in the original document become visible after the export process. I have an example of a “Preliminary” watermark, not visible in Canvas becoming visible in the export. Can the pdf export be limited to the visible layer only.

      Hi ​@Graeme Sheldon,

      I’m happy to share that this issue has been resolved. 
      Please check it out and let me know if the pdf export shows only the visible layer.

      Thank you,
      Andreea.
