About this extension
The extension scrolls the page for you, photographs it section by section and puts everything together into one single PDF.
No print dialog, no cropping, no settings. One click, done.
Made for anyone who needs a web page as evidence later: students, researchers and academics, journalists and fact-checkers — and for AI agents that have to collect sources. Because it photographs the page instead of reprinting it, the PDF looks exactly like the page in your browser: same fonts, same colours, same charts. Printing breaks all of that apart.
CITABLE SOURCES FOR STUDENTS AND RESEARCHERS
If you want, it saves the source details along with the capture:
• Authors, title, journal, year, DOI, ISSN and licence — read straight from the page
• An RIS file next to the PDF, for your reference manager: Zotero, Citavi, EndNote, Mendeley
• The date and time of retrieval, plus a checksum — exactly what a bibliography needs for its "retrieved on" line. That makes the capture citable right away, whether for a term paper, a bachelor's or master's thesis or a dissertation. Works on PubMed, arXiv, SpringerLink, Wiley, ScienceDirect, doi.org and many more.
FOR AI AGENTS AND LANGUAGE MODELS
The PDF carries a real text layer. You can search inside it, and an AI agent reads authors, DOI and full text straight out of the document instead of guessing them from pixels. A folder of such captures is a bibliography an AI tool can compile without opening a single one of the original pages.
WHERE IT HELPS MOST
On pages that ask you to log in — a university account, a library licence, a customer portal. An online conversion service cannot get in there: it fetches the page as a stranger and stops at the paywall. This extension simply captures what your browser is already showing.
Just as useful for archiving: keep invoices, order confirmations, terms of service or support conversations before they disappear or get rewritten.
WHAT ELSE IT CAN DO
• Save just a section: drag a rectangle, done
• Cookie banners are hidden for the capture and put back afterwards
• Single or multi-page, in two resolution steps
• Works on your phone too, in Firefox for Android
FREE AND PRIVATE
Free software under the MIT license. No ads, no watermark, no account, no subscription, no limits.
Nothing leaves your device. There is no server anything gets sent to. The source details come from the open page, not from a citation service — so nobody learns what you are reading. The extension only needs access to the tab you are on, and only when you click the icon.
WHAT IT IS NOT
The capture is a picture of a screen. It is not a qualified electronic document under eIDAS and does not prove what a page said. The time comes from your own device, and the checksum only shows that the file has not changed since.

Single-page output is the default: a long page is stored as one continuous PDF page with no visible seams between segments, which is what makes the result usable for OCR and AI tools. Multi-page output remains available for printing.
On Firefox for Android, tapping the extension icon starts the capture immediately and the finished PDF opens in the device's default PDF app.
The extension contacts no server at any point. Full source under MIT license:
