You should be able to use a file stream to download the contents of the editor. I would first convert the editor state to an HTML string and then use the file stream to get that string to download into a file.

You have to use these 2 conversion packages: Libraries draftjs-to-html can be used to convert RawDraftContentState to html. html-to-draftjs provides the option to convert HTML generated by react-draft-wysiwyg back to draftJS ContentState which can be used to initialize the Editor.
