After you file

What do you mean by "when I turn my 2017 return into a PDF?"   What exactly are you doing?    Are you using some kind of third-party software that converts other files into PDFs?

 

"where can I get my 2017 return?"

 

If you prepared the 2017 return in Online TurboTax, log in and at the Tax Home go to the section "Your Tax Returns & Documents".  Expand that section and choose tax year 2017.   Look for a link "download/print the PDF."
