User reviews

Users appreciate the add-on's ability to edit and clean up webpages before printing or saving to PDF, making it very useful for offline reading and research. It works well on various platforms and supports formatting features that built-in print functions lack. However, multiple users report bugs such as freezing, multiple steps for PDF generation, installation issues, and differences between Firefox and Chrome versions, which hamper user experience.

Pros

Allows editing of the document before printing or saving (font changes, highlighting, removing elements).
Effectively formats webpages for easy reading and printing.
Helpful for saving pages to PDF for offline reading, including pages that Firefox's built-in print cannot save properly.
Has been reliable and useful for many users over time.
Supports multiple languages and works on different operating systems like Linux Mint.

Cons

The Firefox version sometimes differs from Chrome and may not work as expected.
The add-on can be buggy and may freeze or lock up during PDF generation.
Multiple steps or screens are often required to generate PDFs, making it less user-friendly.
Some users experienced installation failures, timeout errors, or sign-in prompts which prevent easy use.
Occasional reports that the add-on has stopped working or brought up unintended browser control windows.

I like that you can actually edit the document (font, highlight, eliminate elements, etc.). But I don't know why this Firefox version is different from the one in Chrome.

Excelente extensión que además agrega el link del que proviene, facilitando los procesos de compra, revisión y reclamo. Muy recomendada, porque además no mete raros en el sistema.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Print Friendly & PDF does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Print Friendly & PDF has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
