How to export NotebookLM to PDF
🚀 Turn ANY NotebookLM podcast into a text-selectable PDF in ONE click – 100% free Chrome extension
TL;DR: I got tired of not being able to share my NotebookLM “podcast” notes with teammates who don’t want to listen to 15-minute audio.
So I built a tiny Chrome extension that adds a “Download PDF” button straight inside NotebookLM.
What it does
- Open any NotebookLM notebook.
- Click the new “📄 Export PDF” button that appears in the top bar.
- Instantly get a text-selectable, clean, printable PDF with:
No copy-paste, no screenshots, no half-baked HTML printouts.Highlight, search, and copy text straight from the PDF.
Why I built it
I love NotebookLM’s AI summaries, but my uni’s assignment submission portal only accepts PDFs. Screen-shotting 30 pages of study guide = pain. Looked for an existing tool – nothing good. So I spent a weekend building this and figured other people might want it too.
Privacy stuff (because that matters)
- Everything happens locally in your browser – no data is sent to my server.
- No Google OAuth, no analytics pixels, no creepy trackers.
How to install (30-second process)
- Go to the Chrome Web Store link above → “Add to Chrome”.
- Pin the extension icon so you remember it exists.
- Reload any NotebookLM tab – the PDF button magically appears.
