How to Save a Web Page as a PDF

Web pages change. A flight booking page disappears after the trip, an online shop updates its prices, an article is edited or taken down. When you need proof of what a page said on a particular day, or want to read it offline, a PDF copy is the simplest record: it keeps the layout, opens on any device, and can be filed with the rest of your documents.

Save a page from its link

Copy the page address from your browser's address bar and paste it into Web Page to PDF. Press Convert to PDF; the tool opens the page and prints it to a PDF, which usually takes a few seconds. Download the file and rename it to something you will recognise later, such as Hotel-booking-Lisbon-March.pdf. There is nothing to upload, only the link.

Pages that need you to be signed in

The tool opens the link as a new visitor would, so it can only see public pages. For anything behind a login, such as an online banking statement, an order in your account or a private dashboard, use your own browser instead: open the page while signed in, press Ctrl+P (Cmd+P on a Mac), and choose Save as PDF as the printer.

If you saved a page's HTML file to your computer, HTML to PDF converts that file directly.

Get a clean result

Close cookie banners and pop-ups before printing from your own browser, or they may appear in the PDF. Pages that load more content as you scroll may need scrolling to the bottom first so everything is loaded. For receipts and confirmations, check that the order number, date and total are all on the saved pages.

Keep and organise the copies

Several saved pages, such as every confirmation for one trip, can be combined into one file with Merge PDF. Long articles saved for reading can be marked up with Annotate PDF. If the PDF is large because of images, Compress PDF makes it easier to email or store.

The short version: Paste the link into Web Page to PDF for public pages, use your browser's Save as PDF for pages behind a login, and check the key details are on the saved copy.
