Save any web page as an image or PDF
Users may quickly convert any web page to an image file, like JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group), PNG (Portable Network Graphics), or a PDF (Portable Document Format), using an online tool or the option provided by their Internet browser. Once a file is generated, it may be downloaded, shared with others over social networks, or used to generate a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) link to its content. To proceed, choose one of the methods below or read through both to see which best suits your needs.
