Reviews of save as pdf:
testing ignore
Does a great job of converting the content i actually want to read to pdf form, graphics and all
THIS IS A CON, NOT FREE, AND TOTALLY USELESS. It gives the impressionit is working but all it saves or opens is a pdf of its login screen Sign up for free, but to use it you have to subscribe, DO NOT TRUST.
After dowloading PDF i got a thumbnali with website logo instead of the website content. Do not bother to waste your time.
Brilliant extension. Creates pretty much perfect pdf documents from web pages. Really useful for downloading research material. Does a superb job of clearing the clutter (ads etc.) before creating the pdf. Very impressed.
not work
Doesn't work.
Doesn't really work. It is no different from an online page that does the same job, however, even if your link is open, if it's originally paywalled, the extension will not save the open content. It will save the paywalled version as PDF, even if you have access to the actual content. Shameful.
Forces you to box your page into a cheap and tacky looking box which doesn't even render correctly.
Helped a lot... saved full page to pdf from the blog!
used to work perfectly but now all I get is ERR
Wish I could delete this twice
Wouldn't work with my email, so I was forced to delete this
Work as intended! ☘️
forces you to register basically
I have had it for 5 years, well over 200 conversions and maybe 10-15 were denied. So those complaining are obviously using it for pages that do not comply. Try your browser print to PDF, Save as webpage & then convert. If no luck get Adobe Acrobat Pro only $500 and it converts ALL -
Has access to your browsing history - regardless of what their privacy statement claims.
I have used this for a long time. The publisher claims that they do not access your private data but it is given access to browser history. So which is it? Edge will no longer allow install because of this privacy issue.
doesn't work
useless
Doesn't work for sites that need a login. Better off using pdf mage (which won't work 50% of the times)
doesn't work
Doesn't work it only says ERR.
Does NOT convert a pdf to webpage. Gives blank pages. Seems to be an ad to get you to PAY for a properly working app.
Perfect app, but it would be much better if the name of downloading pdf is the webpage's name, and not the link of the webpage!
The default option to convert is landscape mode which for me is useless and I cant change that too. Avoid this extension until fixed
Totally useless, it seems to be a fake extension. They are probably stealing info.
I tried to use it to convert a page on my college's website to PDF in my student account. I opened the PDF to find an image of my college's login page. They are collecting what users are printing, basically. This is a severe security concern and I am reporting this extension.
very useful for me,thanks
It makes a pdf out of url, not opened in browser page, so youll stuck with pdf of login page
Does not work
absolutely loved it does what it is supposed to easily saves whole web page to pdf
Error
i dont like it because it is not working
flimsy-juust opens ant downloader
doesn't render the view you have, but fetches the data from the URL, useless if you want to render data which has been generated by javascript based on your input or stuff behind cookies
piece of garbage
doesn't save the page, uses an api that access the site, so you don't get your local data
looser , just words no photos - LoooooooooooL
verrrrrrrrrrrrrry slow
adds a watermark and it uses it's own server for rendering which means if you have something specific to your local machine, it won't screenshot the page properly
Callapsing content that is being viewed expanded is saved as callapsed .... doesnt do me any good to save it
bloomin adverts between pages
Was about to leave a 5 star review, and then I noticed the foot of every page was vandalized with banners promoting this product. Shot yourself in the foot there. I removed it in favour of PDF Mage: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/search/pdfmage
Doesn't work when you're signed in a website.
good
Does'nt work
Fails on any pages that require login details, Opera Browser has a much better save to PDF built in
Its Really Awesome
nice برنامج جيد انصح به.
it didnt work
The paid version of the add-on lets you adjust the print size and does several other nice things, like scrape ads, adjust margins, etc. My problem, however, and the reason that I did not rate higher is this: It cannot handle all CSS properly, especially shadows and gradients. It either removes them completely, or puts them in the wrong order. This happens even when the options to clean a webpage are unchecked.
Doesn't convert the exact page you're looking at. Instead, it loads the same URL on their servers and renders that to PDF. This makes this extension useless for any non-public pages or anything that changes based on who is signed in.
That's ok to save whole page. better giving more choices to modify the page to save it up.
doesn't work
Worked for a total of 10 pages and then just abruptly stopped. I wouldn't call it reliable
Didn't work at all. Only saved a ad for itself.
Nice to have it
Useless trash, can't save anything from sites which require authorization except login page. Go to hell.
In previous i love to use this extension . But at now it cant take whole page as PDF. I check on following site and it sucks- https://portalatoz.blogspot.com/
put its name on every page, really crappy
Doesn't use the browser to render the URL, so if you're logged in to Google Calendar, for example, it won't render your calendar.
It saves the page as a blank pdf with an error line telling me i dont have user permissions on this server.
Doesn't work
Wont work with pages that require a log in - instead of saving what you want to save it saves the back end page ...in this case the log in page and not the receipt!
Will only save top part of the webpage. It saves an image of the scrollbar making you think you can see the rest, and leaves a huge ad border around the little it does save. Useless!
Does not work with shopping carts or pages with dynamic data.
good
Doesn't work
Better than the Adobe addon! Top man/Woman keep up the good work
best exten
Does not access current page, tries to access remotely which results in different content being captured for many sites
There was only one page that I needed this for . . . and, "Save As PDF" wouldn't work on it. Something that spotty isn't worth it. I'll just use Google's built in "Save Page as PDF." More steps -- but, it works reliably.
Separated my content and didn't even include everything. Horrible.
vertically very long web page can not be saved as pdf. it saves pdf with just 1 page of topmost content.
mistake capture
the worst extension in the world
not supports hindi language
great adds on just working perfectly.. thank u very much
It cannot access private pages.
Garbage
not working
Is this some kind of joke? Clicking the well-rendered icon generated a 1-page document with blurb telling me how amazing this addon is, without the document it was meant to be saving.
default setting are bad and you really don't need it
Needs more permissions to work on signed-in pages. Does not work for me.
just the most convenient one out there.Best thing for students who need to save articles about their study topics etc.I also use it to save song lyrics pages ;) and stuff related to my studies.
Garbage. You click 'Save as PDF' and it takes me to this page. That's helpful - now I can leave a bad review.
Must Have
Dont work with ajax, beak page etc.
Useless
Does not work!!!
worked perfectly well,it did what adobe acrobat failed to do
Would be nice if it didn't save the background. I mean yeah sure it saves something as a pdf but not any good information
change the font without my configure
Refuse to convert half of webpage for no reasons.
Didnt get the whole page. bad.
Piece of garbage. Basically a web service disguised as an app that won't properly convert most web pages and watermarks the ones it does. Also does not support local addresses.
нормально работает
very helpful
Ele salva muito bem em PDF, porém o processamento fica dependente de um servidor externo e não do próprio navegador. Translation of brazilian :P Very good files, but the processing is depeding of the server and not of the navigator.
Had this extension for a good 6 months now. It is able to download most web pages, and does so really quickly with a decent format. It has saved me sooo much time and I really recommend it!
gooood
would be excellent if it could save multiple tabs at once as separate pages in a pdf
