Exports and printing

At the moment, there is no direct PDF export of the allocation table in Racine.

You can still obtain a PDF by using the CSV (Excel) export:

  1. In the app, open the relevant group.
  2. Go to the group settings.
  3. Use the option to export the allocation table as a CSV file (compatible with Excel or any spreadsheet tool).
  4. Open this CSV file on your computer (Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice, etc.).
  5. From your spreadsheet tool, use Export / Save as PDF or Print to PDF.

You will get a PDF document containing the allocation table, which you can print or share with your relatives or advisors.

You can include each participant's wishes in the group CSV export.

  1. Open the relevant group.
  2. Go to the group settings.
  3. Enable the option “Include wishes in export”.
  4. Then perform the table export in CSV format.

In the resulting CSV file:

  • an extra column called “wishes” is added;
  • it appears at the very end of the table, after the column containing the image links.

To work more easily with the export:

  • you can open the CSV in Excel, Google Sheets or LibreOffice;
  • in Google Sheets, if a cell contains several image links separated by “;”, you can use the formula
    =SPLIT(J2, "; ", FALSE) (replacing J2 with the cell containing the links) to spread them across multiple columns, each clickable.

👉 If, even after enabling the option, you still don't see the “wishes” column, please check that:

  • you saved the group settings correctly;
  • you are using the latest version of the app.

If needed, you can contact us so we can verify your group's configuration.

Yes, you can retrieve and print the full list of items for a group.

In the app:

  1. Open the relevant group.
  2. Go to the group settings.
  3. Use the option to export the item list as a CSV file (compatible with Excel or any spreadsheet tool).

Then you can:

  • open this CSV file on your computer (Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice, etc.);
  • adjust the layout if needed;
  • print the item list directly from your spreadsheet.

This makes it easy to keep a paper copy of the inventory or share it with an advisor or family member.
