# Export and download

> Get a finished email out of the Builder: copy or download its HTML for your email platform, download MJML or a PDF, publish a web version, or push it straight to your ESP.

Everything that takes an email out of the Builder is in the **Share** menu at the top right of the editor.

![The Share menu with Export, Send to your ESP and Share elsewhere](https://mintcdn.com/emaillove/Mq_WDCFfMdudNH2J/images/builder/editor/share-menu.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=Mq_WDCFfMdudNH2J\&q=85\&s=aace91a26c03074f49671222df2b929d)

## The Share menu

At the top, the menu shows the email's checks: **All checks pass**, a number of **warnings to review**, or a number of **issues block export**. Click it to open **Insights**. See [Checks](https://help.emaillove.com/builder/editor/checks.md).

**Send test email** sends a test. **Copy review link** shows once someone has requested sign-off.

### Export

| Option | What it does |
| - | - |
| **Force light mode** | Keeps the email's light colours in inboxes that switch to dark mode. Saved for the design system. |
| **Minify HTML** | Takes out spaces and line breaks for a lighter email. Saved for the design system. |
| **For** | Which email platform the HTML is for. The Builder writes that platform's merge tags, special links and condition code. Choose **HTML (fallbacks)** for any other platform. |
| **Copy HTML** | Copies the HTML to your clipboard. |
| **Download HTML** | Downloads an .html file. When the email has other languages, it's **Download HTML for every language**, one file each. |
| **Download MJML** | Downloads the email's MJML source. |
| **Download PDF** | Opens your browser's print dialog, where you can save a PDF. |

### Send to your ESP

Each email platform you've connected is listed, with the account name if you have more than one. Click one to push the email. After a push, **Open in** the platform takes you to it. **Connect a new ESP** opens **Integrations**. See [Email platforms](https://help.emaillove.com/builder/sending/esps.md).

### Share elsewhere

* **Publish to web**: a public web page of the email. See [Preview and test emails](https://help.emaillove.com/builder/editor/preview-and-test.md#publish-to-web).
* **Export to image**: downloads a picture of the whole email.

## What the HTML includes

The exported HTML is built for email clients:

* Responsive layout that stacks on phones, with phone-only styles.
* Dark mode support, unless you turn on **Force light mode**.
* Merge tags, unsubscribe, preference and view-in-browser links in the platform's own syntax.
* Images hosted by the Builder.
* UTM tags on web links, if **Link tracking** is set in the email's settings.

## When an email can't be exported

* **A check set to Block fails.** Fix it first. See [Checks](https://help.emaillove.com/builder/editor/checks.md).
* **The design system requires approval** and the email isn't approved. See [Comments and sign-off](https://help.emaillove.com/builder/editor/comments-and-sign-off.md#approval-steps).
* **The language isn't approved.** Each language needs approving before it's exported on its own. See [Languages and translation](https://help.emaillove.com/builder/editor/languages.md#approve-a-language).
* **Your role can't export.** Viewers can't export. Editors and above can.
* **You're on the Free plan.** See below.

## Plan rules

| Plan | Exports |
| - | - |
| Free | None. Your email is saved, and you can send test emails. |
| Builder | Unlimited |
| Enterprise | Unlimited |

On the Free plan, any export or push opens **Exports are part of the Builder plan**. Click **Upgrade to Builder**, or ask your workspace owner to upgrade. See [Plans and billing](https://help.emaillove.com/builder/plans/overview.md).

These count as exports: **Copy HTML**, **Download HTML**, **Download MJML**, **Download PDF**, **Publish to web**, **Export to image**, **Download as image** for a section, and every push to an email platform.

These don't: test emails, **Copy review link**, **Turn into an image**, and viewing the email in **Code**.
