## Description

PrintFriendly makes it easy to turn any web page into a clean, professional printout or searchable PDF. Remove ads, navigation bars, pop-ups, images, headers, and footers, then edit text, resize fonts, highlight key content, and customize layouts for A4 or Letter paper. It supports articles, recipes, research, ChatGPT conversations, non-Latin characters, and right-to-left languages.

Capture full web pages or the current view as PNG, JPG, or PDF, including pages with dynamic content, iframes, and long scrolling layouts. Save PDFs to Dropbox or Google Drive, sync preferences with the PrintFriendly website, and use additional tools to convert, compress, edit, and sign PDFs.
