Download contest score PDFs, raw CSV data, and individual contestant feedback PDFs from Results when those actions are available.
Exports are how you archive the contest and send scoresheets and feedback to contestants, among other things.

Depending on contest state and what's offered on the page:
| Export | Typical use |
|---|---|
| Contest scores PDF | Full packet / archive for the board |
| Raw CSV | Spreadsheet analysis, backups, custom reports |
| Per-contestant PDF | Individual contestant score/feedback packets |
If an action isn't shown yet, scores or permissions may not be ready - finish scoring or check with your tallymaster/producer teammate.
Raw CSV alternate judge columns: the raw CSV includes a column for every Judge and every Alternate Judge on the contest. Regular judge columns count normally toward totals. Alternate Judge columns still show whatever they scored, but the header is clearly labeled so nobody mistakes them for counted votes - for example Judge Name (alternate - not counted) when judge names are shown, or Alternate Judge #2 (not counted) when judge numbers are shown instead. See Alternate coverage & tiebreak for when those columns actually matter.
Contest setting: Results Exports Show Judge Name (instead of Judge #).
Make sure this is set right (it is also recommended to discuss with your judges, too, to make sure everyone is comfortable if you'd like to share names) before you download or release anything.

After everything is announced (and you give yourself a moment or three to breathe):
Can tallymasters export too?
Yes - see Tallymaster exports.
Why is my PDF missing a section?
That section may have no scores yet, or it may be configured differently - verify on Results and Scoring Details.
Where do files save?
Your browser's download folder unless you chose otherwise.
Is there a separate Exports menu?
Producer exports live on Results when available.
