actualNoteContentPart: There are two options to export note content to PDF format. 
  
  # Option 1: Use the Desktop app to export a note to PDF (Recommended)
  The most handy and reliable way to export a note to PDF is by downloading and installing the Windows/macOS/Linux native client. Check out the hotkey that exports a note to PDF in the official documentation: [The Native Amplenote Desktop app client](/help/native_desktop_system_requirements)  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  # Option 2: Use the Omniexport plugin
  Another very reliable option is to use the community-created [Omniexport plugin](https://www.amplenote.com/plugins/TZZf959UvbXewFs6wmjREuos)  and follow the [instructions](https://youtu.be/V3GB9fF98VI) .
   
  
  
  
  
  # Option 3: Use print dialog
  Another common way to export notes to PDF format is to use your browser's built-in print functionality. Since all notes can communicate their content in printer-friendly format, you can take advantage of this to get a PDF of your note. 
  
  **The advantage of the printer-based over plugin-based PDF export is that it retains coloring of code blocks and tables.**
  
  The disadvantage is that it will also print your sidebar if it is open, so be sure to close it before invoking the print dialog.
  
  ## Open the print dialog
  Press Cmd-P to open the print dialog on macOS. 
  
  On PC, Ctrl-P will open the print dialog.
  
  From there, different browsers show the "print to PDF" option in different places.

  Choose "Save as PDF" from the printer options and then click "Save." You will be prompted for a directory in which to save your PDF.
  
  ## Printing as PDF in Safari

  The "PDF" option allows you to download a note as a PDF with all coloring intact
  
  
  ## Printing as PDF in Firefox
