**WHAT ARE THE OTHER EXPORT OPTIONS:**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* [Survey structure (.lss)](https://manual.limesurvey.org/Display/Export_survey#Export_survey_structure\_.28.lss.29 "Display/Export survey"): .lss exports the structure of the whole survey (groups, questions, subquestions, answers, and conditions) into a XML file.
|
|
|
|
* [Survey archive (.lsa)](https://manual.limesurvey.org/Display/Export_survey#Export_survey_archive\_.28.lsa.29 "Display/Export survey"): This option is used when you wish to create a complete backup of your survey, including the already-stored responses.
|
|
|
|
* [queXML format (\*.xml)](https://manual.limesurvey.org/Display/Export_survey#Export_queXML_format\_.28.2A.xml.29 "Display/Export survey"): The \*.xml option is used if you wish to have your respondents fill in your survey _offline_. If selected, please note that not all the question exports can be exported. A .zip file can be downloaded if clicked. The files within it can be used to create a PDF to be printed for your offline respondents.
|
|
|
|
* [queXML PDF export](https://manual.limesurvey.org/Display/Export_survey#Export_queXML_PDF "Display/Export survey"): This is similar to the option described above. The only difference is that LimeSurvey helps you create the PDF within the software, easing the process of PDF creation.
|
|
|
|
* [Tab-separated-values format (\*.txt)](https://manual.limesurvey.org/Display/Export_survey#Export_tab-separated-values_format\_.28.txt.29 "Display/Export survey"): This option is used when authors want to perform bulk editing of their surveys - useful especially if we discuss about large surveys. In a spreadsheet software, such as Microsoft Excel or LibreOffice, actions such as find-replace, bulk-reordering, looping, and testing are faster.
|
|
|
|
* [Printable survey (\*.html)](https://manual.limesurvey.org/Display/Export_survey#Export_printable_survey\_.28.2A.html.29 "Display/Export survey"): To create a HTML-based survey, click on this option.

|
|
|
|
* [Printable survey](https://manual.limesurvey.org/Display/Export_survey#Export_printable_survey "Display/Export survey"): If this option is selected, LimeSurvey automatically prepares the HTML-based version of your survey - useful to quickly print your survey. |
