What it does

The specifics.

Concrete behaviour, not benefit-soup. If we say a feature works, you can test it in 30 seconds and prove us wrong.

01

Convert webpage to PDF in one click

The fastest way to save any webpage as a PDF in Chrome. Click the extension, preview the output, download. No print dialog, no awkward page breaks, no missing content. Works on any site — including pages behind a login where server-based converters fail.

02

Remove ads & clutter before converting

Most free web to PDF tools save the page as-is — ads, banners, cookie popups and all. Our web page to PDF converter lets you click to remove any element (with undo) before export, or switch to Article Mode to strip everything except the main content. Finally get a clean PDF every time.

03

Real PDFs with selectable text & clickable links

Unlike screenshot-based extensions, this tool produces true PDFs with selectable text, working hyperlinks, and proper formatting — the same output you'd get from Chrome's internal print engine, with full control over margins, paper size, and scale.

04

100% local, 100% private

Zero data collection. Zero network requests. The entire conversion runs locally via Chrome's DevTools Protocol. Works on banking dashboards, email, internal tools — anywhere your data shouldn't leave the browser.

The flow

Three steps, under ten seconds.

STEP 01

Install the free Chrome extension

One click from the Chrome Web Store. No sign-up, no account, no credit card. Works on Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, and any Chromium browser.

STEP 02

Open the webpage you want to save as PDF

Navigate to any page — a news article, research paper, receipt, dashboard, or internal tool. Click the extension icon or press Ctrl+Shift+P.

STEP 03

Customize, preview, and download

Choose paper size (A3–Ledger), orientation, margins, and scale. Optionally remove ads or extract the article. Preview the PDF, then download — all in under 10 seconds.

Frequently asked questions

Things people ask before installing.

Honest answers — including where we say no. If something here doesn't answer your question, email [email protected].

01

Is Convert: Web to PDF really free?

Yes. No trial, no subscription, no premium tier. Every feature is available the moment you install. The extension is funded by us, not by ads or your data.

02

Does it collect or track my browsing data?

No. The extension makes zero network requests during normal PDF conversion. No analytics, no telemetry, no IP logging. The only time anything leaves your browser is if you voluntarily submit feedback through the in-app rating prompt — and even then, only the text you type is sent.

03

Does it work on login-protected pages like Gmail or banking dashboards?

Yes. Because conversion runs locally via Chrome's DevTools Protocol, the extension uses your already-authenticated browser session. Server-based converters can't do this — they only see public pages. This is the main reason to use a local extension over an online converter for any private content.

04

Will the PDF have selectable text and working hyperlinks?

Yes. The output is a true PDF generated by Chrome's own print engine — selectable text, copy/pasteable content, clickable links, and properly embedded fonts. Unlike screenshot-based extensions, the PDF is not a flat image.

05

How is this different from Chrome's built-in "Print to PDF"?

Chrome's print dialog struggles with lazy-loaded images, sticky headers, cookie banners, and modern CSS. This extension pre-scrolls the page so lazy images load, lets you click to remove ads or strip the page to its main article (Article Mode), and exposes finer control over margins, scale, and paper size. For simple pages, Chrome's built-in works fine — for everything else, this fills the gap.

06

Does it handle very long pages or infinite scroll?

Yes. The extension captures full-page content of any length, scaling to fit your chosen paper size. Infinite-scroll pages should be scrolled to the desired endpoint before triggering conversion.

07

How do I remove ads or unwanted page elements before exporting?

Open the extension and click "Article Mode" to automatically strip everything except the main content (using the Readability algorithm), or hover individual elements on the page to delete them one at a time (with undo).

08

What paper sizes are supported?

A3, A4, A5, Letter, Legal, Tabloid, and Ledger. You can also set orientation, margins, and scale per conversion.

09

Which browsers does it work on?

Any Chromium-based browser: Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Brave, Arc, Opera, Vivaldi. Firefox and Safari are not supported because the underlying APIs differ.

10

How do I uninstall it?

Right-click the extension icon and choose "Remove from Chrome", or visit chrome://extensions and click Remove. All locally-stored preferences are deleted with the extension.
