How to Save a Web Page as a PDF
Web pages change, disappear, or just look messy when you print them. Saving one as a PDF freezes it into a clean, portable file you can keep, share, or read offline. Here’s how.
The quickest way: your browser’s print dialog
Every modern browser can save a page as a PDF without any tools:
- Open the web page.
- Press Ctrl+P (or Cmd+P on a Mac) to open the print dialog.
- Under Destination, choose Save as PDF.
- Click Save.
Converting an HTML file to PDF
If you’ve saved a page as an HTML file, or you have your own HTML, the HTML to PDF tool renders it into a fixed PDF — handy for invoices, reports, or archiving a layout exactly as it appears.
- Open HTML to PDF and choose your HTML file.
- Press Convert and download the PDF.
Going the other way
Need to turn a PDF back into a web page? PDF to HTML converts your document into editable HTML you can publish or reuse.
Tips
- Print preview first to check the page breaks land where you want them.
- Self-contained HTML converts best — make sure styles and images are included so nothing is missing.
