by halic, 2 years agoThis is an outstanding addon that makes an excellent quality PDF from any webpage of your choice. The beauty is that it makes a pretty much perfect copy of the website, and saves it to your desktop as an html file. That file can then be turned into high quality Pdf by opening it in a browser, and using the browsers ‘Print function/menu’ to save it locally, as a Pdf. So, brilliant right? Well yes, but there is a problem. Previous to a week ago, all SingleFile Pdf’s were saved using OCR. In other words, the Pdf created was an editable [copy and paste from the Pdf] document. Of late, I have noticed that this is no longer the case. All my latest saved Pdf’s using the SingleFile addon are now saved as image-Pdf's 😒 instead of 'true' editable Pdf's. Can this be fixed? Otherwise ❤ your Addon, thank you. *UPDATE* - After 're-jigging' my firefox installation + a reboot or two, the issue is resolved [as the dev suggested it would be]. So I am all chuffed again now, and have re-rated this great addon with 5 stars 😊 Thank you for your prompt response👍

posted 2 years agoThank you for the review! The behavior/bug you describe is not related to SingleFile but rather to Firefox. The only thing that could be causing this problem from my point of view would be related to the settings in the “File format” section of the options page in SingleFile. You have to make sure the file format is “HTML”. You can also reset the settings to see if it fixes the issue.
UPDATE - I'm glad to hear the issue is resolved! 😊

- Rated 5 out of 5by crankyfranky, 6 days agoAmazing. Exactly what is needed. Packed with features and customizable options. The output looks just like the original. It's opensource, private, does not collect any data. Great job developer. One issue I have is that it's downloading to '~/user/Downloads/' instead of the download path set in Firefox.

Tysm! - Rated 5 out of 5by Alphonse, a month agoA feature that used to be possible from the web-browser itself, but due to increased web complexity now requires an extension. In that regard, this extension works great, but of course not all interactive elements can be saved offline.

- Rated 4 out of 5by toni, 3 months agoDirei tutto bene, l'estensione funziona come si deve.
Però vorrei che in fase di salvataggio mi chiedesse dove salvare.
Non ho trovato tale possibilità tra le impostazioni dell'estensione.
Nelle impostazioni dei Firefox ho già spuntato "Chiedi dove salvare ogni file".
Sono io che sbaglio qualcosa?
