Ask HN: Is there a way to render URLs to PDFs on Android?

2 points by Irongirl1 2 months ago · 6 comments · 1 min read


I hope that is clear, but if not: I'm trying to find a method of sending web pages to PDFs on Android for a better reading/researching experience. Something which can be sent to Kindle via the sharing system Android already has would be ideal. Thanks in advance, BK

Easiest is Firefox 'Save as PDF'. If you need more control (custom margins, JS wait, viewport size), PDFBolt has a free URL to PDF tool that runs in mobile browsers without signup

Yes, some browsers allow you to save url as PDF. Or Search Google: "site to convert url as PDF." Hope, that helps!

Yes, it depends on the browser being used. Some browsers allow that: "Save as PDF"

I found some webpage to pdf websites, if that works for you. Nothing to install.

In Firefox on Android you can just simply "Save as PDF".

yakpdf can handle HTML/URL to PDF conversion through an API without dealing with browser setup or headless tools.
