Exports
Everything Trove makes can leave Trove. Formats depend on where the file was created.
Studio files
- Documents → Word (.docx) or Markdown (.md)
- Spreadsheets → Excel (.xlsx) or CSV (.csv)
- Decks → PowerPoint (.pptx) or Markdown (.md)
Tro artifacts
- Websites → HTML (.html), a single self-contained file
- Documents, spreadsheets, decks, notes → Markdown (.md)
- Code → plain text (.txt)
What survives
- Headings, lists, tables, bold/italic, and links carry over into .docx, .xlsx, and .pptx.
- Spreadsheet formulas export as values in .xlsx unless the sheet was built with live formulas — check the file after download for anything calculation-critical.
- Website .html files are self-contained: open in any browser, host anywhere.
Known limitations
- Tro artifact downloads are Markdown, not native Office files — open the artifact in Studio first if you need .docx/.xlsx/.pptx.
- Complex deck layouts (overlapping elements, custom animations) may simplify on .pptx export.
- Embedded images reference their hosted URLs; downloading the file doesn't bundle the images.
