What is Save as PDF?
"Save as PDF" is an Edge add-on that allows users to easily convert web pages to PDF documents with a single click, maintaining the original structure and layout of the page. Through integration with the Pdfcrowd service, it offers quick in-browser conversions with default settings and further customization options for subscribed users, including page size, orientation, margins, and more. However, it cannot convert web pages that are password protected, dependent on sessions or incorporate complex elements like Flash and videos.

Summary

The best Web Page Save as PDF Add-on for Edge!!! Lets you download web pages as PDF in one click. This add-on lets you save web pages to PDF. It uses the https://pdfcrowd.com HTML to PDF web service.

The extension works right out of the box using the default settings. If you want to customize the PDF you can sign up for a paid account at Pdfcrowd. The available options include page size, page orientation, margins, password protection, initial view, etc.

★ Conversions in Browser Pdfcrowd provides the online conversion form and the browser add-on that you can use to convert web pages in your browser. You can use these tools for free, you don't need a Pdfcrowd account. However, if you are a power user and want to customize PDFs beyond the defaults you might consider obtaining the Browser License.

Open the web page you want to convert to PDF in the browser and click the extension icon. It would show the popup page and icon starts animating which indicates that the conversion is in process. If the conversion succeeds, the resulting PDF is downloaded to your computer.

The Save as PDF toolbar icon is updated after each conversion:

  • A red rectangle indicates an error. Hover your mouse over the button and a tooltip will display the error message.
  • A little red dot indicates that you are not logged in at Pdfcrowd, hence the default settings were used.
