How to Export Apple Notes with Attachments on Mac

Keep images, scans, PDFs, sketches, and files together when you move notes out of Apple Notes.

Quick Answer

To export Apple Notes with attachments on Mac, open Apple Notes Exporter Pro, select the notes or folders you want, pick an attachment-friendly format like PDF, HTML, Markdown, or Word, and export to a local folder. The app keeps your content organized and runs the export right on your Mac.

Apple Notes tends to grow into a jumble of text, screenshots, scanned documents, PDFs, sketches, and file attachments. Copy notes by hand and those files get cut off from their context, and large exports become a pain to verify.

Apple Notes Exporter Pro was built for Mac users who need a dependable way to export notes with attachments intact. You end up with a local, browsable archive that is easier to back up, search, and move into other tools.

Why attachment-safe export matters

Keep context

Images and files stay attached to the notes where they belong.

Avoid manual copy-paste

Batch export whole folders instead of opening every note one by one.

Choose the right format

PDF for records, HTML for browser viewing, Markdown for PKM tools, or Word for editing.

Local processing

Your private notes and attachments stay on your Mac throughout the export.

Step-by-step attachment export

1. Open Apple Notes Exporter Pro
