## Good to know

Add the packages your template needs. The exported file carries content, not a journal style.

The extension creates files on your computer. It does not sign in to Overleaf, and nothing is sent to Overleaf until you import the file yourself.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does NotebookLM have a built-in Overleaf integration?

No. Gemini Notebook has no built-in connection to Overleaf. The working route is a file: export from NotebookLM in a format Overleaf reads (LaTeX, BibTeX), then import or open it there.

### Does LaTeX export use the daily quota?

No. LaTeX is a basic format with no daily export quota.

### Does my content pass through a server on its way to Overleaf?

No. Files are converted in your browser and saved to your downloads folder. You move them into the other app yourself.
