# Export to Text Menu Option

This option will export your characters to a plain text file.

The To Text selection opens up a pop up window which prompts the user to select how to export open characters.
On the left you can choose either one open character to export, or check the “Entire party” checkbox to export all open characters.
Then you select which Output Sheet template is to be used to export the character on the right.
Once both have been selected, click the ‘Export’ button and PCGen will export the character to a file in a folder chosen by the user (PCGen’s Character directory by default) using the name of the character as a filename.
When finished press the ‘Close’ button.
