In Print Preview you can shift the paper sheet around and place it under the desired part of the drawing, for instance beneath floor 1. When you export to pdf instead of printing on paper then you get separate pdfs for each view. You have to know about how to set up paper size, scale etc properly of course.

There is a catch though: the resulting pdf file will still contain the surrounding drawing parts outside of the view area, they are just hidden. So the file will be much, much larger than necessary. So it is still a good advice to separate the views to extra layers so you can switch them off and prevent them to get into the pdf file in a hidden way.
