export to pdf

I have a little trouble with the simpliest export - I would like to export just the floor plan I'm watching to edit it in photoshop etc. Now if I simply try to export on a4 format, it will split my floor plan into 4 pieces, even though it would fit into one paper. I suspect its because of elevation lines, which archicad wants to place in my document too, even though I don't need them at all. In layouts on the other hand, where I can place the drawing I need, it's always displaying the table with "company name" etc.

And my question is: can I delete this table from layout, or is that possible to export only the part of my floor plan, that I need in other way, without deleting elevation lines?

To have a layout without any title block, create a new Master Layout without any lines or text. Then place the plan on a Layout with this Master Layout. Another option is to create a Layer Combination that has the layer with the elevation markers (elevation lines) hidden.
