A pdf is not the one you needed.  You needed the tax file.   And...if you want to transfer 2023 to 2024 you have to do that at the very beginning, before you enter any 2024 information, so you will need to start over.

 

How to transfer last year’s return?

Sorry---no---you need the tax file the one that ends with .tax2023     A pdf just does not "cut it" --- a pdf only transfers some personal information like your name, SSN, etc.    Always--always---save the tax file and a pdf.
