Save as PDF 1.6

The Save as PDF toolbar button is updated after each conversion:<br /><br /> * A little red dot indicates that you are not logged in at Pdfcrowd or that your license is not active, hence the default settings were used.<br /> * A red rectangle indicates an error. Hover your mouse over the button and a tooltip will display the error message.<br /><br />How the extension works<br />Converting a web page to PDF involves the following steps:<br /><br /> 1. You navigate to a web page you want to convert, let's say www.example.com.<br /> 2. You click the Save as PDF toolbar button. The add-on sends the address of the web page to the Pdfcrowd service.<br /> 3. Pdfcrowd sends a request to www.example.com.<br /> 4. Pdfcrowd downloads the contents of www.example.com.<br /> 5. Pdfcrowd creates PDF.<br /> 6. If you have an active license your custom settings are applied to the PDF. Otherwise the defaults are used.<br /> 7. The created PDF is sent back to your browser.<br />It is important to realize that the PDF is not created on your computer but on Pdfcrowd servers. When you click the Save as PDF button, the only information sent to Pdfcrowd is the web address. Pdfcrowd fetches the web page and converts it to PDF. Of course, it does not know about your local settings, cookies, or other installed add-ons so the created PDF migth look different to what you see in your browser.<br /><br />For instance converting a web page that uses a server-side session to identify a user (e.g. your web mailbox) will typically end up with a login page in the PDF.
