## Download an image or PDF

##### Bowtie Master allows users to download a bowtie diagram in both PNG or PDF format.

**Step 1: In the toolbar, click on the Download Tool, then select Download Image/PDF. **

**Step 2: Select your preferred format: PNG Image or PDF Format.**

**Step 3: Select whether you would like to export the full diagram, the left side, or the right side only. Click EXPORT.** 

NOTE: We have tried to keep our software as simple and initiative as possible, when you are exporting a diagram, the image you see on screen will be reflected in the download.

Example - If you are using [Analyse Mode](https://bowtiemaster.com/docs/use-analyse-mode/) at the time of image export, this will show on the bowtie image download.
