AI Chat Export SuiteStart with Markdown for a .md file
Choose Markdown when you want the conversation's content in a text-based .md document. Keep your prompt and the relevant response together if you want to revisit why a code example was proposed.
You can use JSON, CSV or TXT instead without changing plans, or PDF within the daily PDF allowance. TXT is plain text. This guide does not claim direct integration with an editor, repository or note-taking app.
Export the whole DeepSeek conversation
- Install the extension and open the DeepSeek chat you want to save in Chrome, Microsoft Edge or Firefox.
- Set PDF, Markdown, JSON, CSV or TXT as your default format.
- Choose a folder inside Downloads, or choose to be asked where to save each file.
- Use the extension's Export button on the chat page. It saves the whole chat in the default format.
The toolbar popup detects the current site and chat and can export it too. These steps use the extension, not a provider-specific download button.
Select the debugging exchange you need
Open Select mode. Each message has a checkbox in the sidebar. Use All, Human, Assistant, None or Invert to adjust the selection. Shift+Click selects a range. Selected messages are outlined on the page. Review the selection, then export it.
For a debugging discussion, keep the prompt that describes the issue alongside the response you want. Assistant selects assistant messages; it does not select only code blocks inside a message. Select mode is free.
Use PDF when a paged document fits the content
Set PDF as the default format and use the same Export button, or export selected messages with Select mode.
PDF limitation: PDFs do not support emoji or Chinese, Japanese or Korean characters. PDF message text is plain, without bold or list formatting. Every plan and PDF Packs have these limits. Choose Markdown, JSON, CSV or TXT to keep content PDF cannot represent; TXT does not carry rich styling.
Free PDF allowance: the Free plan includes 3 PDF exports per day, shared across all seven sites and reset at 00:00 UTC. Markdown, JSON, CSV and TXT exports are unlimited on every plan.
PDF controls include the filename and title, A4 or Letter, portrait or landscape, margins, light or dark theme and font size. You can include the original-conversation link, start each prompt on a new page and toggle page numbers. Font choice is not available. Intact code blocks do not mean the PDF recreates the provider's interface.
Find an exported code conversation later
The local archive contains chats you've exported. Search by keyword, then use the code or site filter to narrow results. Search is free. A result reopens the original DeepSeek chat on its provider site.
Re-exporting replaces that chat's previous archived copy. The archive does not include unexported history or provide sync or restore. The code filter is an archive-search control, not a source-code analysis feature.
Bundle exported discussions with a paid plan
Starter and Standard, the paid plans, add PDF Packs and ZIP packs of up to 200 saved chats from the local archive, ordered newest first. A PDF Pack has a title page and clickable table of contents; a ZIP pack has one file per chat in any of the five formats. Choose the chats, pack title, page size, theme and page numbers. Each chat in a PDF Pack counts as one PDF toward your daily allowance; a ZIP pack in a non-PDF format is not counted. Exports and packs are built in your browser.
Paid plans also remove the PDF branding footer and the pop-up after each export. With a Single provider plan, paid features apply only to the site you choose at checkout—DeepSeek, for example—and the other sites stay on Free. All providers plans cover all seven sites. Paid plans do not change the PDF character or formatting limits. Packs do not add AI thinking or tool steps.
Know what is outside the export
Images or media downloads, web sources, AI thinking, artifacts, message timestamps and tool steps are not available. Font choice and date filters are not available. This is not an account-wide history export or a runnable project bundle.
