Save All Google Docs in a Folder as PDF at Once
Saving all docs from a folder at once starts with opening the specific folder in Drive and selecting everything. Pressing Ctrl+A or Cmd+A selects all files visible in the folder, then the extension handles the rest.
Opening the right folder first
Saving from a folder requires navigating into the specific folder before selecting. In Google Drive, double-click the folder to open it. If you select files from the root Drive view, you may include documents from multiple folders. Opening the target folder first keeps the selection clean.
Select all with the keyboard shortcut
With the folder open in Drive, press Ctrl+A on Windows or Cmd+A on Mac. Every file visible in the folder is selected. The extension will skip non-Google file types (images, uploaded PDFs, Word documents) and convert only Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides.
Running the export
With all files selected, click the Docs to PDF icon. The extension processes each file one at a time. A progress indicator shows the current status. All PDFs download to your Chrome downloads folder with names matching the source documents.
