As you did not do that previously there is not way that it can be done now using it.

You will have to copy and paste every one of them. there is no way around this.

There is no other version that can be provided here.

I want to save all my posts in a file on my computer that I can read. I don't want to load this up to a different site. help!

Then use windows live writer > http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/windows-live-writer/

I've tried multiple times and ways to use the export file to create a pdf or some other human readable file format I can save and read and it doesn't work. I can't even see the anything when I open it in a web browser. Maybe I'm missing something extraordinarily simple, but I'm lost. I want to save all my posts in a file on my computer that I can read.

I REALLY don't want to have to copy and paste them all into Word documents or something, it would take hours.
