Ok. Now I understood and it is working really fine for my purposes.
In "Categories management → Export Categories..."
I have to pick out the option for export as .json. As .json it exports the Categories and the Category Description, while as .txt it exports the Categories only.
Thanks a lot ...

In the menu I can go to: File → Catalog → Export

Hello friend.
I am now using version 1.9.4 in Windows 11
In the dialog "Categories management..." I don't see the option "export Description". I have only the option to "export Categories" same way it was in version 1.9.3

Re: Export categories description
Just found a way to get the list of categories, each of them with descriptions. But it demands some dexterity from the computer user and some steps. Not for the average user, I would say:

Re: Export categories description
Would be interesting, thanks. That or a new descript.ion file for category descriptions. Because at this point there is no way to export the text that goes in the category descriptions.
