How to Download and Export Documents

You can download a copy of any document from Xodo Sign at any time — whether it's in progress or completed. Here's how.

Download a completed document

1. In the left navigation, click Documents.
2. Click the Completed tab to filter completed documents.
3. Find the document you want to download.
4. Click the Download PDF button on the right side of the document row.

The document will download as a PDF to your device. Completed documents include the Certificate of Completion — the audit trail embedded within or attached to the PDF.

Download an in-progress document

1. Go to Documents and click the In Process tab.
2. Click on the document name to open it.
3. Inside the document view, use the Download option to export the current version.

Download a draft

1. Go to Documents and click the Drafts tab.
2. Find your draft document and click to open it.
3. You can download the uploaded file before sending.

What's included in a downloaded document?

Completed documents downloaded from Xodo Sign include:

• The signed PDF with all signatures and completed fields
• A Certificate of Completion — a tamper-evident audit trail with signer details, timestamps, and IP addresses

Troubleshooting

If the Download button is not appearing or the file fails to download:

• Make sure your browser is not blocking pop-ups or downloads.
• Try using a different browser (Chrome or Firefox recommended).
• Check that the document has a Completed status — partially signed documents cannot be fully downloaded until all parties have signed.
• If the issue continues, contact Xodo Sign Support.
