Why save a webpage as a PDF?

Saving a webpage as a PDF is useful when you want to:

• Read articles offline.
• Keep a copy of information before a page is updated or removed.
• Share webpages without ads or distractions.
• Highlight, annotate, or comment on content.
• Print a webpage with consistent formatting.

Save webpages in other formats

PDF isn't the only option. If you need more flexibility, tap Save Page instead and choose the format that best fits your needs:

• PDF – ideal for sharing, printing, and annotating.
• HTML – keeps the webpage as an editable HTML file.
• Web Archive – preserves the page for offline viewing.
• Link – saves only the webpage URL for quick access later.

This gives you more flexibility, especially if you need to retain formatting or re-open the page later in its original form.

Do more with saved webpages

After saving the webpage, Documents unlocks even more tools. You can annotate the PDF, compress it, sync it with cloud storage, or share it with your computer. It becomes part of your organized file system, right alongside your documents, books, downloads, and more.
