Normally Export → PDF downloads a PDF file straight away. If direct download isn't available for a moment, you see "Opening print dialog instead" and your browser's print screen opens.

Save from the print screen

  1. Under printer or destination, choose Save as PDF.

  2. Choose Save.

On a phone, tap Share or the printer options, then save as PDF to your files.

"Too many downloads"

You can download up to 60 PDFs an hour. Wait a little and try again.

Other options

  • Export → DOCX (Word) always downloads straight away.

  • Try again in a few minutes for a direct PDF download.
