Exporting notes
Download a note as Markdown or copy it to the clipboard.

Plainwork stores every note as Markdown, so export is lossless.
Export a single note
- Open the note.
- Click the … menu in the note header.
- Choose Export.
- Pick Markdown (
.md) or Copy to clipboard.
Export a whole collection
- Open the collection.
- Click the … menu in the collection header.
- Choose Export collection as Markdown.
You'll get a .zip of .md files, one per note, with frontmatter containing property values.
What's in the markdown
- The body you wrote.
- Frontmatter with property values, title, and the Plainwork note ID (used for round-tripping).
- Images are embedded as URLs to Plainwork-hosted assets (they stay accessible while the note stays shared).
