More buggy than the old PRINT EDIT addon, can print google maps as well.

A versão anterior era perfeita, esta deixou muito a desejar, está confusa e não edita direito as páginas para imprimir.
POR FAVOR ATUALIZEM O ANTIGO PRINT EDIT PARA FUNCIONAR NO FIREFOX 57. Ele era muito melhor.

The previous version (Print Edit) was perfect, this version (Print Edit WE) is confusing and does not edit the pages to print right. PLEASE UPGRADE PRINT EDIT TO WORK ON THE FIREFOX 57. It was much better.

I am unable to get PrintEditWE to work. (Workaround: Use printEdit on Firefox ESR or Waterfox.)

Awkward, un-intuitive UI.

Permet d'améliorer l'impression.
Pas encore au top (reste zone blanche sur zone effacée)

This add-on is really very useful and worked for which it is made for, Thank you!!

Too new. Just learning about it.

i love it & i can not work without this extensions
but you must first learn how can you use it

Hi there, I have loved this plugin up to now, unfortunately currently not working since WE updates. Now sluggish takes long long time to load. And save options now there is no way to load information with styles. I use to love how I could set all the styles and take out all the fluff then purge all into one html or pdf. All formatting was kept, now I can not capture css at all, only shows without css when print edit. Also in sav. I have latest firefox portable, only other plugin is Add Blocker Plus Legacy. I tested options as well.

Hope this helps as I would love old functionality back! Truly excellent, I have used it for the past year and I say genius plugin! Even though its currently broken for me I still give 5 stars for all your efforts! I Really Really Appreciate it :-) MK

I give it 5 stars because I LOVE this add-on. Unfortunately, the upgrade to WE doesn't work for me. I'm still at FF 54 because of the most recent version doesn't use any of the add-ons I need.

Now this one lets me edit and format about the same as before, but when I hit Preview it goes straight to print and prints blank pages. Please help get it working again for me.


EDIT:
Took quite awhile, but finally got it working. Had to go to 56, turn off Prep, and still can't find Fix Page Breaks. Oh,, well. I'll take what I can get.

I like that this version creates the editable page in another tab as opposed to the previous version that dominated the entire window, but opening a page in a new tab creates a problem when that page what generated by logging in or using a search function that does not carry over if the page is duplicated.

Thank for turning this into a WebExtension! Print Edit really helps me out to remove some annoying sections from my printouts.

Win7
FF56.0.2

I was using printWE v19.4 and found a way to use on payment pages where a new 'tab' was not created, because a page refresh as part of loading new tab; many/most payment screens no longer display the payment (POST) information/conf number.

The workaround in 19.4 and earlier was to select print preview versus print edit (print edit loading a new tab). When in print preview I could select edit from the displayed toolbar and the edit screen would popup in same tab, that displays payment amounts and conf numbers.

Unfortunately, printWE20.0 calls a different print bar and entering back to edit mode from the new print bar is not possible, therefore, printWE20.0 is rendered useless for me, because direct selection of edit renders a new page (resulting in no payment information displayed) in a new tab, meaning all my payment information is lost.

I have my main machine that I updated to printWE20.0 and another machine, same OS/FF etc., that is still printWE19.4 and revert to edit is still available on it. Unfortunately, I can not use the machine with printWE19.4 (never upgraded to printWE20.0) for payments processing.

NOTE: I have tested printWE20.0 on 9 cc pmt sites with same result: if select 'print edit' (also true in 19.x) then new tab with refresh and screen displayed in that tab does not contain the pmt information (because of the refresh).

I tried a downgrade to printWE19.4 on the machine with printWE20.0, thinking the revert would bring back the needed print bar format, but even with 19.4 the print bar remains the same. Basically I can no longer clean up pages before saving to pdf, rendering printWE useless.

Is it possible to re-introduce the edit button on the print preview toolbar so that one may elect to enter edit again, without a new tab/refresh, so that one can edit pmt pages for banks, credit cards, etc?

For what it is worth; I also liked the select pdf tick box on prior versions to printWE20.0..to me the operation for pdf y/n branch was much easier.

Hopefully you can make corrective action or advise how I may cobble printWE20.0 to allow entry back to edit from print preview toolbar (or how to hack machine that was back rev to 19.4 to display old print bar...I poked around but have not fount where I can hack to get 19.4 back to the 'GoodBar'.

I give 5* because print and printWE have served me well in past but printWE20.0 fubars my ability to use.

The 'old' Print-Edit was for me one of the most useful and accomplished FF add-ons. Given the reviews here I have NOT (so ignore the 3 stars - just entered as a neutral rating because field is required) tried the WE version because it is obvious it has some significant problems but it is also equally obvious these problems stem not from the add-on developer but from FF itself, as the FF developers increasingly lock down FF into a sort of paranoid uber secure - well, what? FF used to be all about the ability to customize it to one's liking but that ability is all but gone. I'm seriously thinking about what other browser to use (WIndows) but the field is limited and unattractive: Chrome (bloatware), IE (thanks but no thanks), etc.

Which leaves FF. So isn't the thing that we should be berating FF for its regressive changes rather than having a go at Print Edit's developer, who is doing his best under trying circumstances not of his own making?

Oh, and by the way, any FF supporters out there who say the current FF is better and/or why would I not want a more secure FF: the answer is I want adequate security, not Fort Knox.

Edit: DW-dev: thanks for your response. Seems I can't add a response under yours so mine will have to go here, as an edit. The three stars remain because, as I said, the FFFs (roll your own on what the third F stands for) require an assessment so I went for average/neutral.

My 'review' was more about WE = less functionality and flexibility and applies particularly to valuable but complex add-ons like yours, hence saying it here.

A bit of background: I was trying to edit your code to see if I could get the Save PDF button to send the edited html stream to wkhtmtopdf, with a view to achieving the Holy Grail of saving an edited page with active embedded links (which wkhtmltopdf can do, at least for unedited pages). I know this has come up before, and your reply if I remember was that saving to PDF was a secondary function and just used an internal FF PDF routine to do the save. I then came up against the FF xpi validation/signing restrictions and decided life was too short, even though there is a way of disabling signing verification by using two short js config files. But doing that probably really does leave the doors open to all sorts of nasties.

I currently use a custom button to send the url of the page (so it's the whole page) to wkhtmltopdf and it outputs a tolerable or better pdf with active embedded links over 90% of the time. But it is always the whole page, so often there is unnecessary bloat. If Print-Edit could do the same thing with the edited html that would be truly awesome!

Will those of you that gave 3 stars or less because this replacement doesn't meet the expectations you had, get a perspective!!
The guy had a brilliant solution. His solution was broken by Firefox's changes (again even Firefox is not to blame because they changed due to technology landscape change).
So what morons can not see the clear distinction that this is a different product and it is in its infancy. Start by being grateful that he's making a new product for you ingrate idiots. I'd say you have more brains than the average bear because you use Firefox but sadly various neurons in your brain are fairly damaged and you're unable to see the bigger/fuller picture of this situation.

You should all be ashamed and apologize and correct your ratings.
Other more intelligent users please see this rating and take a few seconds write your own. Hopefully a more thoughtful one thanking the guy for his efforts. He's not even asking for donations, for heavens' sake!!!

For all you whiners about more permissions, read his response. He has addressed it. Undo your stupid knee jerk reactions of ratings someone's community effort low because you're too lazy to ask or read.

I see other great plug-ins get slammed by idiots but I've tried to ignore... this one just took the cake in how many dumb and lazy ingrates actually wrote about it.

Mr. or Ms. Author of this plug-in, this is my way of saying thank you for your creation. I love the old version and I'm sure this one will be excellent soon.

Using the old Print Edit. Went to this due to Firefox screwing us over with their new code, making old add-ons incompatible. This new version is worthless. No edit capability I can find, which is the reason I added it in place of the old version which doesn't work like it used to. I have tried adding and deleting it several times, tried all combinations of options I can think of. If I allow "preparing" it locks up Firefox.

REVISED REVIEW AND RATING!!!

Received follow up info from developer and along with deleting another add-on that appears to have been interfering with Print Edit WE; there are a couple of non-intuitive things that have to happen. You MUST add the Print Edit WE icon to the toolbar. With the old Print Edit I went directly into Print Edit from Firefox Print Preview. With Print Edit WE you click the Print Edit WE icon. If you go to Print Edit WE Options and enable the “Skip prepare stage ...” option. It then goes directly into the edit mode in a new tab. If you don't enable that option, you have to click the Print Edit WE icon again when it changes to also say "EDIT". You will still be taken to a new tab. The Print Edit WE toolbar is now inside the tab window at the top. To print without this toolbar showing up in your print, click the Print Edit WE icon and the toolbar disappears.

Kudos to this developer for his help and assistance in leading me back to the functionality I was used to having. Print Edit was the easiest and best add-on I had found for use in Firefox. Print Edit WE matches up with the old Print Edit extremely well.

I use Print Edit WE to clean up articles and tips from woodworking web pages (and other sources) to create a pdf file using CutePDF Printer and to save these web pages to a folder without having the possibility of the web page being no longer available a few years later. I had had some web pages saved from probably ten years ago in an obsolete (?) format that was hard to open, and some I never could open..

WebExtensions is completely incompatible with most "Appearance" extensions (by design) and makes functionality enhancing ones like Print Edit practically start over from scratch to work around new restrictions. The few implementation options still available then get presented to users as "new" permissions that they must agree to. Never mind that the XUL version had MUCH more control over Firefox, yet nobody complained.

It makes sense that Print Edit WE makes a copy of the current page–so you don't have to refresh after saving or printing. The problem is that many sites get their content from AJAX and don't update the POST data correctly in PrintEdit's copy. This can probably be fixed if you are willing to share the details with the dev.

Frankly, I'm super impressed and amazed that DW-dev got Print Edit to work under WE at all. Extension developers like him tend to do this stuff in their spare time. The least you can do is bear with him during the transition.

Dude...

Hell of a lot of permissions you are asking for:

This add-on can:

Access your data for all websites
Download files and read and modify the browser’s download history
Display notifications to you
Access browser tabs
Access browser activity during navigation

I won't be upgrading my Print Edit only for this reason.
I need my Print Edit as it is and you need to clarify why you need all these permissions.

I am using this for the first time, and it is proving to be very useful, BUT there is one obvious thing that I am sure it can do, but I cannot find how to do it.
So as I cut out stuff I do not want to print, the number of pages should get fewer, BUT NOT ALWAYS. I use the properties function to see that there are hard page breaks that are preventing the reduction of number of pages.
I have tried different ways to get rid of the hard page breaks, but have not been successful.
Can you please explain in SIMPLEST WAY POSSIBLE how to get rid of all the original page breaks. Need very detailed, step-by-step explanation please. Thank you!!

I would like to disable warning "Purge may change page layout ... ... Do you want to purge elements in this page?". How can I do it.
