User Reviews

User reviews are mixed. The add-on is praised by some for quickly converting a webpage to PDF and for Thunderbird integration, with users calling it useful and 'very useful' or 'excellent.' However, frequent reliability problems are reported: saving often yields a blank page or nothing, content may be lost or not captured (expanded elements, embedded links), and destinations may be incorrect. It relies on an external service for conversion, and there are no settings and save limits push a paid 'pro' version.
Pros
  • Converts a webpage to PDF quickly.
  • Works with Mozilla Thunderbird.
  • Some reviewers report it works well and is useful.
  • Overall positive feedback from a subset of users.
Cons
  • Often saves a blank page or nothing instead of the page content.
  • Not reliable across many sites; not working on many pages.
  • Incorrect save destination or path handling (unknown destination or creates folders).
  • Fails to capture dynamic content like expanded elements or embedded links.
  • Relies on an external service to convert pages and imposes save limits that push users toward a paid 'pro' version.

Is Save as PDF Safe?

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.

Save as PDF requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
