8. Export the Manual

After reviewing all steps, return to the popup and click Export. Choose PDF, Word, or Markdown. Free PDF exports include a watermark; Pro removes the watermark and unlocks Word, Markdown, and batch export.

9. FAQ

Payment succeeded, but no license appears

Open https://zlhx.hcznai.com/en/order/ and enter your Paddle transaction ID and purchase email. If it still does not appear, email jiangming@hcznit.cn.

What controls the display language?

The extension follows your Chrome browser language. The website also routes automatically based on browser language.

Is workflow data uploaded?

No by default. Screenshots, steps, and edits stay in your browser. Pro activation only sends the license code and anonymous device fingerprint to validate licensing.
