# Export a NotebookLM Note as PDF or Markdown


The Export note button saves one open Gemini Notebook (formerly NotebookLM) note or Studio document to your computer without leaving it. You can save it as Markdown, HTML, plain text or PDF.

## Why export one note?

Sometimes you want only one note, not the whole notebook. When you open a note, Kortex adds an export button to it.

## How to export one note

1. In the Studio panel, click a note to open it.
1. Find the Kortex **Export note** button (a download arrow) near the top of the open note, close to the three-dot button.
1. Click it. The note is saved to your computer as a file.

Notes can be saved as Markdown, HTML, plain text or PDF. Kortex also adds a small option there for saving as a PDF.

:::tip Good to know

- Saving counts as an export. The free plan has 10 a day, shared with other exports. Kortex Pro has no limit. See [pricing](https://www.kortex-notebooklm.com/#pricing).
- To save all your notes at once, use [Export Studio outputs](/docs/studio-panel-export).

## Can I export the whole chat too?

Yes. The **Export** button in the Chat group of the Kortex bar saves the notebook's chat as Markdown, HTML, plain text, PDF or JSON. See [Export Chat](/docs/export-chat).
