# Write Documents to Disk

CFS can write documents to disk in several formats. You might want to write documents to disk for the following reasons:

- so that you can see the data that is being indexed. You can then set up further processing tasks to manipulate and enrich the data.
- so that you can debug your Lua scripts or other processing tasks.
- so that you can export the data from documents to other systems.
