The tax file generated for my completed return doesn't have my 1099s. Why not?

What kind of 1099s are you looking for in your tax file?   If you were self-employed, your 1099-NEC or sometimes 1099-MISC income will flow to your business return, either a Schedule C, F, or E.   If you entered 1099s into TurboTax, they are included but their location depends on what type of income the 1099 represents.    Many 1099s will end up in Other Income on your tax return.  Check Line #8 on your Form 1040 - it is a total of your other income from Schedule 1.

These are just plain old 1099s  mostly from retirement accounts.  I entered them manually, the software and the IRS accepted them.  I assumed the the pdf file generated by turbotax would have copies but it doesn't seem to.

The tax file that prints right after filing is the filing-only copy.  No 1099 Worksheets of any kind.

You can see/print/save-to-PDF copies of those if you get back into your file, and go to the Print Center to get a new copy, but select one of the extended tax files listed with all the worksheets.

But note that he TTX software does not have official 1099-R,1099-INT, 1099-DIV, 1099-etc,etc, forms in it...only worksheets containing their data. 

You need to keep printed copies of the official forms yourself, in a file folder, in case the IRS or state happen to ask for copies.  Sometimes they do...randomly, or to answer some question, or an audit.

@castles2022 The copy of your return will not include 1099 schedules, only tax forms and associated worksheets. You need to retain your 1099 forms you used to prepare your tax return.

I have seen and accessed the "Print Center" but I can't see any way into it from the screens I now have access to.

I don't need the actual 1099s, I just need to see the data I entered.
