When you add a "Save as PDF" button to your website using WebSave, you might want to give visitors control over how their PDF looks. Instead of using fixed settings, you can show a dialog where users choose their preferred page size, filename, and other options before downloading. Learn how to build a custom PDF settings dialog with WebSave.

Users often need to export web pages as PDFs. The browser's window.print() function produces inconsistent results: CSS backgrounds are omitted, page breaks occur mid-element, and layout rendering differs from the screen display.
WebSave as PDF provides a client-side solution for adding PDF export to web applications. It captures the current page state directly in the browser. This guide covers integration for React, Preact, Vue, Angular, Svelte, Astro, and SolidJS.
We have released a new version of our API client libraries.
New:
- PHP client: resolve deprecation warnings for PHP 8.3
- All clients: minor documentation updates
This guide helps you migrate from the Save to PDF Link service to WebSave as PDF. The migration is straightforward and can be completed in a few simple steps.
Why migrate? Save to PDF Link is a legacy service that relies on the HTTP referrer header, which is increasingly unreliable due to browser privacy features and HTTPS policies. WebSave as PDF works more reliably and offers better customization options.
