Steps

What you get
You get the report as a .md file with its heading hierarchy, lists and tables, with no daily limit.
Markdown is the best format for a knowledge base: paste it into Obsidian or Notion and the structure survives.
Limits to know before you export
- Long tables and complex equations may need a manual check after export.
- Free Word and PDF files may carry a small Ultra Exporter credit in the footer; Pro removes it.
- A cover page, logo, fonts, header and footer need a Pro branded document template.
Can NotebookLM export reports on its own?
Gemini Notebook can send a report to Google Docs. It has no direct download to Word, PDF, Markdown or LaTeX files and no batch export. Google changes these menus often. The item's own menu in your notebook shows what is built in today.
