How Do You Save a Webpage as PDF?
You save a webpage as PDF by pasting its address into QuickCatPDF's Webpage to PDF converter and clicking Convert to PDF. Our server opens the page in a real browser, waits for it to load, scrolls through it so lazy pictures appear, and prints it to a PDF with selectable text and working links.
You can convert up to 10 addresses at once and choose A4 or Letter pages, or one long page that keeps the whole website in a single scroll. It's free, with no sign-up and no watermark.
How to Convert a URL to PDF With QuickCatPDF
Saving web pages takes four steps.
- Type or paste the web address into Web addresses, one per line (up to 10).
- Choose the Page size (A4, Letter or One long page) and the Layout.
- For several addresses, choose Separate PDFs or One combined PDF.
- Click Convert to PDF, then download the PDF or the ZIP.
A4 Pages or One Long Page?
One long page captures the full page as a single tall PDF page, with nothing split across page breaks. It's the closest thing to a full-page screenshot, but the text stays sharp and selectable. A4 and Letter split the page into printable pages and shrink the desktop layout to fit the paper width.
Layout decides which version of the site you get. Desktop loads the page in a 1,024-pixel-wide window; Mobile loads the phone layout, which is narrower and often easier to read in a PDF. In our test, an article page saved as A4 in about 3 seconds, and the same page as one long mobile page showed the site's phone layout.
Which Pages Can Be Converted?
Any public page that loads without signing in. The server sees the page as a logged-out visitor would, so:
- pages behind a login, paywall or bot check show that screen instead of the content;
- cookie banners and pop-ups may appear in the PDF, as they would for a first-time visitor;
- pages that answer with an error, such as "not found", are reported instead of being saved.
For a page you can only see while signed in, open it in your own browser and use its Print option, or save the HTML and convert it with HTML to PDF.
Is It Safe?
Yes. The server only opens public websites: addresses on private networks, local machines and cloud-internal services are refused, including when a page tries to redirect there. The web addresses you convert aren't written to our logs, and each PDF is deleted as soon as your browser downloads it.
Frequently asked questions
Is Webpage to PDF free?
Yes, free with no sign-up and no watermark, with a fair-use limit of 20 pages an hour per visitor.
Can I convert several URLs at once?
Yes, paste up to 10 addresses, one per line. You get a ZIP of PDFs, or one combined PDF with a bookmark for each page.
Will the links in the page still work?
Yes, links stay clickable in the PDF, and the text can be selected and searched.
Why does my PDF show a cookie banner?
The server visits as a first-time visitor, so consent banners appear as they would for anyone. Switching Styles to the site's print styles can hide them on some sites.
Can I save a page that needs a login?
No, the server can't sign in to your accounts. Use your browser's Print and Save as PDF option for those pages. To combine saved pages with other files, see Convert Any File to PDF or Merge PDF.
