Stillkeep PDF photobook cover for an Era called Seoul — A Stillkeep Era turned into a clean, portable PDF photobook.

A photo journal you can take with you

Your memories should not end at the edge of an app.

Stillkeep is built around Eras: meaningful chapters of your life made from individual photo-and-story entries called Moments. A holiday, a relationship, a baby’s first year, university, a family season or an ordinary stretch of life can all become an Era.

When an Era feels complete—or you simply want a copy outside the app—you can export the whole chapter as a formatted PDF photobook. Stillkeep lays out the Era as a readable document rather than giving you a folder of disconnected files.

The finished PDF is easy to keep in Files, attach to an email, send to family or friends, archive with your other documents, or print for your own physical collection.

One Era. All its Moments. A complete chapter you can keep and share.

How PDF photobook export works

Three steps from Era to shareable PDF.

You do not need to design pages or rebuild the story somewhere else. The photos and writing you already kept in Stillkeep become the photobook.

Select an Era

Open the life chapter you want to preserve, such as a trip, family year, milestone or personal project.

Press Export

Choose the Era export option. Stillkeep generates a formatted PDF containing the Era and its Moments.

Save, email or share

Use the iPhone share sheet to save the PDF or send it through Mail, Messages or another sharing app you use.

What the export looks like

Designed like a small book, not a database dump.

The cover introduces the Era. Inside, photographs and the writing attached to each Moment are given room to breathe.

Cover page of a Stillkeep PDF photobook titled Seoul — Era cover page with title, date and Moment count.

Internal page of a Stillkeep PDF photobook showing a Seoul street photo and the caption I love it here — An internal Moment page with the photograph and its written context.

Share a whole story

A PDF can carry an entire Era to parents, grandparents, relatives or friends instead of sending photographs one by one.

Keep a portable copy

Save an exported Era alongside your other documents for long-term personal archiving and data portability.

Print when you want

Because the export is a standard PDF, you can keep it digital or print a personal copy using your preferred printing workflow.

PDF photobook FAQ

Common questions about exporting an Era.

Can I export my Stillkeep journal as a PDF?

Yes. Stillkeep can export a complete Era as a formatted PDF document, keeping the chapter’s photographs and written memories together.

Can I email the photobook to family and friends?

Yes. Once the PDF is generated, use the iPhone share sheet to send it through Mail or another compatible sharing app, or save it first and attach it later.

Is a PDF photobook different from a Photocard?

Yes. A Memory Photocard is designed to share one individual Moment as an image. A PDF photobook exports a complete Era containing multiple Moments as one document.

Does exporting make my journal public?

No. Exporting creates a file for you. Nothing is published automatically, and you choose who receives the exported PDF.

Can I use the PDF for backup or long-term preservation?

A PDF is useful as a portable, human-readable copy of an Era. For more on keeping access to journal content over time, see Stillkeep’s data portability and preservation guide.
