Where to find it on Chromebook

Your PDF is saved to My files › Downloads. Open it in the Gallery app or Google Drive. Choose Save to Google Drive as the destination to skip the download step entirely.

What's in the PDF

Your messages are tinted, ChatGPT's replies run full width, code blocks wrap instead of being cut off, and links print with their address. Untick Include my messages to keep only the answers, or tick Timestamps to record when each message was sent.

If something goes wrong on Chromebook

  • Downloads are blocked on a school Chromebook. Set the print destination to Save to Google Drive. Managed devices usually allow Drive.
  • Markdown shows raw symbols in the Text app. That's normal for Markdown. For a formatted view, paste it into Google Docs with Edit › Paste from Markdown (turn on Markdown in Tools › Preferences first).
  • The file isn't in Downloads. Open the Files app and check Google Drive › My Drive, in case the destination was set to Drive.

Good to know on Chromebook

School Chromebooks often block extensions. This page needs nothing installed, so it works on managed devices too.

Other formats

The same link also gives you Word and Markdown on Chromebook, plus plain text and HTML under More.

Questions

Do I need to install anything on Chromebook?

No. Everything happens in Chrome. There's no app or extension to install.

Does it work for long chats?

Yes. The whole conversation is loaded before saving, so long chats come out complete.
