Arrange photos, add captions and preview pages before exporting a saved book revision.

[Open Memory Book Studio](<https://restorebunny.com/signup/?from=seo-content&source=%2Fguides%2Fbook-export-per-revision-vs-per-download%2F&view=book>)3 credits per new saved revision export · Account required[See credit packs](<https://restorebunny.com/pricing/>)

Quick answer

## The short version

Memory Book Studio charges three credits to create an export for a new saved revision. It does not charge again simply because you download that already exported revision another time. This distinction helps separate generating a changed deliverable from retrieving an existing one.

## Compare the workflows

| Decision | New revision export | Repeat download |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Action | Create a PDF for changed saved content | Retrieve an existing exported revision |
| --- |
| Credit use | Three credits | Zero additional credits |
| --- |
| Availability | Within the project retention window | Also limited by the project retention window |
| --- |

## How to make the decision

Finish the review, save the intended version and export it. If the transfer fails, use the same revision’s download action. Avoid saving an unnecessary change merely to retry a download. Saving an actual caption, page order, theme or size change creates a different revision, whose export has its own cost. Keep the finished file locally before the ten-day project expiry; free repeat download does not mean indefinite hosted storage.

## Worked planning example

Planning example: Revision 2 exports successfully but the connection drops during download. The owner downloads revision 2 again for free. A later correction is saved as revision 3 and is only charged if that new revision is exported.

## Check before you finish

1. Check which revision is saved.
2. Retry an existing download without editing.
3. Export changed content deliberately.
4. Keep the file before the project expires.

## Choose the next step for your task

Memory Book Studio saves a captioned photo story with fitted images, ordering and three fixed themes. Editing and previewing are free; exporting a new saved revision costs three account credits. Repeat downloads of that exported revision use no additional credits. Projects expire ten days after creation. Use the free Image to PDF tool when one image per page completes your task.
