NB! The files are being put in an archive and downloaded as a single file, the ZIP-archive. So, note that you need to have a program to work with the archived files to extract and use them afterward.

Downloading Google Docs in Other Formats

  • The advanced downloading options are available from the document itself. So, open the document you need to download. After you’re here, go to the File item on the top toolbar and press it. Now drag the cursor down to the Download line.
  • And here, in the new menu, select the format you want to get the document in and just press it. The download started, and now you have the file on your computer in a required format
