Four ways to convert a web page into a PDF

Pick the mode that fits the page. Everything is vector, everything stays selectable, everything happens locally.

Full page, end to end

Captures the entire page — even what's still hiding under infinite scroll. Auto-scrolls to trigger lazy-loaded images, hides fixed headers and floating bars, then stitches everything into one clean multi-page PDF.

Pick a single element

Click any block on the page — a card, a chart, a table, a recipe — and export just that. The picker walks the DOM with arrow keys so you nail the exact node, with optional margins and border control.

Article mode

Strips sidebars, ads, comments, popups. Powered by Mozilla Readability — the same engine Firefox uses for Reader View. Clean serif typography, narrow column, adjustable font size.

Remove the noise first

Cookie banners, sticky headers, "subscribe" overlays, chat widgets — point and delete them before export. Ctrl-Z to undo, Esc to cancel. Works on top of any other mode.

Remove Elements

Clean the page before you convert it to PDF.

Point at cookie banners, sticky sidebars, newsletter boxes or chat widgets and remove them from the page before the PDF is generated.

The mode sits on top of every export flow, so you can clean up first, undo with Ctrl-Z if needed, then capture the exact page you want.

  • Click unwanted page clutter to remove it
  • Undo the last removal without starting over
  • Export the cleaned page as a selectable PDF

Getting started

Convert a page to PDF in under a minute

1

Pin it to Chrome

Install from the Web Store and pin the icon next to your address bar — that's the whole setup.

2

Open the page you want

Any article, dashboard, receipt, internal wiki — anything that loads in Chrome with your existing login.

3

Pick a mode and click

Full page, element, or article. The PDF opens in the built-in viewer the moment it's ready.

If you just need to convert page to PDF quickly, open the page, click the extension, and save the result locally — that's it.

Vector PDF

Real PDFs. Not screenshots.

Text stays selectable. Links still click through. File sizes stay small. Search engines, screen readers and your future self can all still read it.

Most online tools rasterize the page into one giant image. This one uses Chrome's native rendering, so what you get is a real document — copy-pasteable, searchable, sharp at any zoom.

Preview before you save.

Every export opens in a clean viewer with zoom, page count, file size and one-click download. No surprises after you commit to disk.

Reopen any past export from the viewer's history — the file stays cached locally so you don't have to re-render the page if you just want to take another look.

100% Local

Your page never leaves the browser.

Most online "save to PDF" tools upload your URL or your full HTML to their servers. This one doesn't. Generation happens inside Chrome.

That matters when you're saving logged-in dashboards, internal tools, receipts, or anything else that should never end up on a third-party server. No account, no tracking, no cloud.

Stays inside Chrome

HTML, cookies, page content — all rendered locally. Nothing uploaded.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert a page to PDF in Chrome?
Install the Page to PDF extension from the Chrome Web Store, click its icon next to the address bar on the page you want, and pick a mode — Full Page, Single Element, Article or Cleanup. The PDF opens in the built-in viewer ready to download. The whole flow takes about 30 seconds and runs entirely inside Chrome — your page is never uploaded. For a full walkthrough see the step-by-step guide.
How is this different from Chrome's built-in "Save as PDF"?
Chrome's print dialog cuts off lazy-loaded content, breaks layouts on long pages, and ignores fixed sidebars or sticky headers. This extension scrolls the page first to trigger lazy loading, hides fixed elements that would otherwise repeat on every page, and stitches the result correctly. You also get Article mode, Element picker, and Remove Elements — none of that exists in the print dialog.
Does the text stay selectable?
Yes. Output is real vector PDF — fonts, links and structure are preserved. You can copy/paste from the resulting file, search inside it, and screen readers can read it.
Will it work on infinite-scroll feeds?
Yes. Pre-Scroll for Lazy Loading is built in — the page is scrolled to the bottom first to trigger lazy-loaded images and content, then captured fully expanded. After export the page is reloaded so you don't end up with a "scrolled to the bottom" tab.
What data do you collect?
None. The PDF is generated locally in Chrome. No URL, HTML, or content is sent to any server. There's no account, no signup, no analytics. The full privacy policy is one click away in the footer.
Are there any limits or paywalls?
No daily limits, no signup, no premium tier, no watermark, no character or page limit. Free.

Your next "save this page" is going to be way better.

Free forever. No signup. One install, then forget about printing-to-PDF ever again.
