Yes - thank you for reminding me. It's confusing that you can save as for this but you have to export for pdf….

I've always thought that distinction intelligent and sensible (and an improvement over Some Other Products). You save to word processor formats, retaining the document structure and enabling further editing, whereas you export to PDF, as this format loses the document structure and is quite unsuitable for further editing. Exporting to PDF is more like exporting to hard copy - otherwise known as printing. In particular, after a user has exported to PDF, they are still prompted to save or discard any changes to the document.
