Each successful PDF counts once toward the 5 free premium exports per day, whatever its length.
Limits to know before you 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.

Free or Pro?
Free within a shared daily quota: Word, PDF, image PPTX, long image and video exports share 5 successful exports per local day. Pro removes that quota. Pro covers the extension only; it does not include a Google subscription or raise NotebookLM's own limits. Current prices are on the pricing page.
Frequently asked questions
Is it free to export NotebookLM reports to PDF?
Yes, within a limit. Word, PDF, image PPTX, long image and video exports share 5 successful exports per local day on Free; failed exports do not count and the quota resets the next day. Pro removes the daily quota.
Do equations render correctly in the PDF?
Supported equations are rendered by the browser when the PDF is created. The result depends on equation syntax and fonts, so check complex formulas; lossless reproduction of every equation is not guaranteed.
Can I add a cover page and my logo to an exported report?
Yes, with Pro. Branded Word and PDF templates set a cover, author or organization, logo, fonts, theme colour, header and footer. Up to 20 templates can be saved.
Can I export several NotebookLM reports at once?
Yes. Batch export in the Studio panel lets you select several reports and notes together. Free handles 5 items per batch; Pro removes that limit.
