Problem Exporting PDF From Keynote

I have a problem that when i'm trying to export pdf from keynotes in ipad, most of the pages end up blank. I viewed it from goodnotes so I tried opening in windows and the same problem occurred at first but then I kept trying to export it again to see what's going on and after couple of times I can view it even though it's kind of lagging when I scroll it.


But I'm still unable to view it from goodnotes and it's really important because I want to use it in goodnotes.


Can someone help me? Is this the keynote problem or goodnotes? I tried export different files and have no problem in goodnotes.

When you export to PDF from Keynotes, on your iPad, then do you save the PDF converted file in the FILES folder first? Are you then tapping on the file and then choosing Open in GoodNotes? This process normally works if Keynotes for iPad and GoodNotes are current and updated. The updated version of GoodNotes is GoodNotes 5.

Can you download and install Adobe Acrobat PDF Reader, on your iPad, from the App Store? Then once the document has been exported to PDF, open with Acrobat Reader. See if the document appears correctly. If it does, then you can open with GoodNotes.
