Sharing a link is usually better — it stays current and the client can comment on it. But some situations want a file: a printed presentation, an email attachment for someone who will not click a link, a set of pages for a site meeting. Save PDF in the pinboard toolbar produces one.

What you get

Each page of the pinboard becomes a page of the PDF, in order, with your images and labels as arranged. Zoom level does not affect the output — the export uses the canvas, not your current view.

Getting a clean export

1

Label everything

On screen you can talk over the board. On paper the labels have to do it alone.
2

Name your pages

Page names carry through. BEDROOM-PAGE1 is better than Page 1.
3

Check image quality

A vendor thumbnail that looks fine at 40% zoom prints badly. Replace low-resolution images before exporting.
4

Look at it at 100%

Set zoom to 100% and read each page as the client will.
For a full client presentation, export the pinboards and the schedule, then send both. The boards show the idea, the schedule shows what it costs.
If in doubt, send the link and offer the PDF.
