# Download an invoice as a PDF

> Save an invoice as a PDF file to print it or send it to a student or parent.

Download an invoice as a PDF when you need it outside Cohort, for example to print it or send it to a parent in a messenger. You can download any invoice, whatever its status.

By default, owners, admins and managers can download an invoice.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Don't see this page or button? Your role doesn't include it. Ask your center's owner or an admin to give you the role you need. See [I can't see a menu item or button](https://help.cohort.uz/en/troubleshooting/cant-see-a-menu-item-or-button.md).

## Steps

**1. Open the invoice**

In the sidebar, select **Invoices**, then select the invoice.

**2. Download it**

Select **Download PDF**. Your browser saves the file, named after the invoice number, for example `INV-2026-00042.pdf`.

If the download doesn't start and you see "Failed to download the PDF", try again in a moment.

## What's in the PDF

* Your center's name and the branch's name, address and phone number
* The student's name, student ID and phone number
* The invoice number, status, issue date, due date and billing period
* The line items, any discounts, the total, the amount paid and the amount due
* The payments recorded on the invoice

The PDF is in the language you're using Cohort in. To get it in another language, switch your language first.

> [!NOTE]
>
> A PDF of a **Draft** or **Void** invoice has its status stamped across every page and a notice saying it isn't payable, so it can't be mistaken for a bill. Issue a draft before you send it. See [issue an invoice](https://help.cohort.uz/en/admin/invoices/issue-an-invoice.md).
