How to Save a ChatGPT Conversation as a PDF
By the GPTs Exporter team · Updated
The quickest way to save a ChatGPT conversation as a PDF is with our browser extension ChatGPT to PDF: open the chat, click Save as PDF/WORD/MD/GD (Default PDF). The PDF keeps code blocks, tables, images and LaTeX maths formatted the way they look in ChatGPT.
Why should you use our extension?
Printing a chat or copying it into a document usually breaks code blocks, splits tables and drops images. ChatGPT to PDF is built to keep the conversation exactly as you see it, and to give you a document you can actually use.
| Feature | What you get |
|---|---|
| Perfect formatting | Code blocks keep their indentation and syntax highlighting; tables, images and LaTeX maths look the way they do in ChatGPT |
| Four formats | PDF, Word (.docx), Markdown (.md) and Google Docs from one button |
| Google Drive | Save exports straight to Drive, and import PDFs, images, Docs and Sheets from it |
| Choose what to export | The full chat, only ChatGPT's answers, or a question-and-answer layout |
| Make it yours | Custom title, font size, automatic table of contents and a text or image watermark |
| Long chats | Exports large conversations in one go. |
| Any language | Works with every language ChatGPT supports |

More than PDF: Word, Markdown and Google Docs
The same button exports to Word (.docx) for editing, Markdown (.md) for notes apps and GitHub, and Google Docs for sharing and collaborating. You can also save any export directly to Google Drive. See how to export ChatGPT to Word or Google Docs.
Private by design
To create your file, the conversation is sent to our servers over HTTPS. It is used only for the conversion and deleted as soon as your file is ready. We never store, log or review your conversations.
