file only shows the visible branches. The text of the exported file, however,
includes the text of all branches in the map. For more information, see
"Viewing a mind map" and
"Focusing on a branch".

your bibliography and citations. You can either select a Microsoft Word

By default, the exported
file will have the same name as the MindView Online document. If you include
a title page, the title of the MindView Online document is also used here.
The branches of the map
are exported to the PDF file in the order in which they are displayed,
starting from the top right in a clockwise direction. Each branch is exported
as a paragraph heading at the relevant level; in other words, Heading
1 for main branches, Heading 2 for sub-branches, Heading 3 for sub-sub-branches
and so on, using hierarchical numbering.
Text notes are inserted
directly in the PDF file.
The exported PDF file
contains hyperlinks to all attached objects in the MindView Online document
that are not selected on the Attached
Objects tab. When the reader clicks a hyperlink to an attached
object, he or she is taken to the MindView Online site where the attached
objects can be downloaded to his/her computer, network or device.
The reader can only access the online document on MindView Online and
download the attached objects if he or she has a MindView account, and
if the online document has been shared with the reader. For more information,
see "Sharing files and folders".
