Travelling outside the US prior program completion date and obtaining an EAD card

I am on an F1 visa and I graduate in May 2021. I plan on travelling outside the US and returning in April 2021 and applying for my EAD sometime during Feb-Mar so that I can being with post-completion OPT employment. Can I travel outside the US prior to the completion date of the program and my EAD is still processing? Additionally, if my EAD is approved before I re-enter, would I need to have my EAD card on me to enter back into the United States?

I was able to dig up the following information online: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZJOwszAdFxLJnvn_0Dy4CvAsA3gUyFwn/view?usp=sharing

Appreciate any advice in this regard.

Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form!
