PDF and Word

Download PDF is the main button on a document and in the editor. Download Word is in the three dots menu. The file is named after the document's title. Exports are unlimited on every plan and never use AI credits.

The export uses your saved document with your logo and brand details applied. What it carries depends on your current plan, and Free exports have a "Made with SpecIQ" footer. See Company profile and brand kit.

A share link is a public, read-only web page of a document. Anyone with the link can view it without logging in. Use it to send a spec sheet by email or chat without an attachment.
