On desktop, open Firefox’s menu, choose Print, set Destination to Save to PDF, review the preview, and click Print. On Android, use Share → Save as PDF. On iPhone, Firefox’s documented route uses a full-page screenshot and the iOS Save as PDF option.

Save a webpage as a PDF in Firefox on desktop

  1. Open the webpage in Firefox.
  2. Open the Firefox menu and select Print… to open print preview.
  3. In Destination, select Save to PDF.
  4. Review the preview and adjust the settings you need.
  5. Click Print, then choose where to save the PDF if prompted.

Mozilla’s desktop instructions say to select “Save to PDF” from the drop-down to save the preview as a PDF (How to print web pages in Firefox).

Review print settings before saving

Print preview can offer page selection, orientation, color mode, paper size, scale, pages per sheet, margins, output format, headers and footers, and background printing. The available controls can vary. Check the preview because a webpage’s printed or PDF layout may differ from what you see on screen.

Original or simplified output

Where the Format control is available, Firefox may offer Original and Simplified. Mozilla notes that choosing Simplified prevents selecting Print backgrounds. If you need to edit webpage content before printing, Mozilla mentions the Print Edit WE add-on; it is optional and not required to save a PDF (Print Edit WE).

Save a webpage as a PDF in Firefox for Android

  1. Open the webpage.
  2. Tap the three-dot menu, then tap Share.
  3. Choose Save as PDF.
  4. Tap Download in the confirmation pop-up.

The PDF is saved to Downloads. To locate it in Firefox, open the menu and tap Downloads. Mozilla says the same steps can save a PDF file opened from a webpage link (Save web pages as PDF).

Firefox’s documented iOS method uses the iPhone’s full-page screenshot export:

Choose the right Firefox method

Platform Route How to find or export the file Layout controls
Desktop Menu → Print → Destination: Save to PDF Save from the print flow Print-preview controls such as page selection, orientation, scale and margins
Android Menu → Share → Save as PDF → Download Downloads; Firefox menu → Downloads Not stated in Mozilla’s cited Android workflow
iPhone Screenshot → Full Page → Done → Save as PDF Choose the save destination in the iOS export flow Full-page screenshot export; Firefox print-preview controls are not part of this documented route

The cited Mozilla procedures describe saving or exporting a file; none requires a physical printer or other accessory. Mobile menu labels and controls may change as Firefox and the operating system are updated.

If you need a webpage screenshot or PDF through an API instead of saving it manually in Firefox, ScreenshotNeo takes a URL in one GET request. Its API can return PNG, JPEG, WebP or PDF. For example, save the result as a PDF by requesting the PDF output option documented in the ScreenshotNeo API documentation:

curl -G "https://api.screenshotneo.com/v1/shot" -d access_key=YOUR_API_KEY --data-urlencode url=https://stripe.com -o shot.pdf

ScreenshotNeo removes cookie banners, popups and chat widgets before the shot; each step can be turned off. Bot checks, blank pages and failed loads are never billed, and responses identify the page verdict and billing status. An MCP server lets AI agents take screenshots. The free plan includes 1,000 screenshots a month with no card; paid plans start at $5 for 3,000. Sign up for free.
