Pocket Guide: Save Web Pages to PDF with Just a Few Clicks

Have you ever been surfing the web and accidentally found a useful article, wanting to save it for later reading while still keeping the original layout and images? Or want to send that content to friends and customers in a convenient file format? This article will reveal to you ways to quickly "turn" a website into a PDF file, making it easier to store and share. SaDesign will accompany you on the journey to discover these secrets!

1. WHY SHOULD YOU SAVE WEBSITE AS PDF FILE?

1.1. Keep layout and formatting intact

One of the strengths of PDF is the ability to “package” content. When you save a web page as a PDF, the fonts, images, links, and even colors are all retained, limiting the “broken layout” or distortion that occurs when copying and pasting into Word.

1.2. Easy access anytime, anywhere

You don’t need to worry about internet connection when you have a PDF file “in hand”. Whether you are on a plane, train or traveling, you can still open this document to read.

1.3. Convenient sharing

PDF files can be sent via email, shared via chat applications (Messenger, Zalo, WhatsApp...) or even uploaded to online storages such as Google Drive, Dropbox... without fear of display errors. Most mobile devices and computers can open PDF easily.
