There are plenty of reasons to want to save a complete web page to a PDF file. Perhaps you want to save a favorite online story, you\u2019d like to create a digital library of your favorite tips from The Rocket Yard<\/strong>, or would like a PDF file of a long, scrolling web page containing all of your credit card charges for the last five years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previously, this could only be done using certain browsers, with an iOS Automation that saved the web page as a PDF, or by using third-party solutions that grabbed and saved complete web pages for you. In macOS Catalina, iOS 13, and iPadOS 13<\/strong>, Apple has finally made it easy to save full, long web pages displayed in Safari as PDF files, without needing to scroll and print individual screens as PDFs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s how it\u2019s done:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

iOS 13 and iPadOS 13<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1 – Open the web page in Safari <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 – Tap the share icon<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 – In the dialog that appears, tap the Options link next to the name of the web page or article (see below)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Tap
Tap the “Options” link to change the file type to PDF<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

4 – Select PDF from the list of options (see below), then tap Back<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Select
Select PDF if you wish to save the file as a PDF.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

5 – Now either share the PDF with someone using Mail, Messages, AirDrop or other sharing options, or (if you wish to save it permanently) tap Save to Files<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6 – If you\u2019ve chosen to Save to Files, the PDF is created (for my sample, which was 28 pages long, it took about 7 seconds), and then a Files dialog appears (see image below). Select the folder into which the PDF should be saved, then click the Save button at the top of the dialog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Select
Select the folder into which the PDF file should be saved, then click the Save button in the upper right of the dialog<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

macOS Catalina<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1 – Open the web page in Safari<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 – Select File > Export as PDF\u2026 from the menu bar (see screenshot below)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Export
Export as PDF in macOS Catalina now saves all of a web page, not just the part you can see<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

3 – Select a location to save the converted web page, and click Save<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is that easy or what? Note that with both methods \u2014 for iOS\/iPadOS and macOS Catalina, you may occasionally have images that don\u2019t appear. Of course, embedded videos and similar items appear as blanks in those documents as well.
