While this is a very important add-on for my web / news archiving, I have encountered a great number of issues over the past few versions.

In this current version, I spend a lot of time refining the print layout only to have it stop responding, which requires me to reload the webpage and lose every tweak I spent time on.

In this and previous versions, some webpages randomly shift the edit boxes, making things like adjusting font size difficult, as the checkbox to activate the intended tweak is shifted up or down a few boxes.

I've noticed some webpages reload after a set amount of time, rendering the editing process precariously challenged by time limits, as it yields a blank white page during the editing process on such pages. It would be nice if PrintEdit could include configuration to suspend any running scripts or otherwise put the page in a static mode while editing.

Some edits don't make sense. How do I get my bulleted lists back? Changing the font size or margins and poof, bullets be gone.

Again, my use is for archiving purposes, particularly when webpages either get edited or are otherwise removed. Typically I don't need photo-exact reproduction, but I do need content-accurate archiving and ideally in a neat print-form.

Plenty of bugs, but seriously, it is one of my essentials. Please do keep up the good work. This review is NOT indended to push people away. It is simply a snapshot in time on what I'm experiencing with it.

Often doesn't allow editing pages so they will print in a way that fits the page. BIG issue for me is that the PrintEdit button greys out in reader mode. NO REASON for that!

I deleted my previous review. After spending more time with it.

The extension does work and will do what you want. But not always easily. The WYSIWYG needs work.

When I edited the web page and all looked good I saved as a PDF. The PDF was awful. Text was either corrupted or missing. Yet on screen my edited web page looked great.

It turned out I had to tweak the page more and all was good.

But it would really really help if the extension had much better WYSIWYG.

If your PDF looks corrupt, it means you need to do more with adding, deleting, fixing line breaks for a start.

Otherwise this is a very promising extension indeed.

Since about 6 months, PDF content is randomly scrambled.

I was using Print Edit 18.4 in Waterfox and was delighted with its performance. Now I have switched to Firefox and have to use Print Edit WE, and there is something I find missing, the Preview options box has disappeared and when I click on the option it goes directly to the printer. I would like to be able to use the options that were available before like "shrink to fit or choose the percentage". Is there any possibility of reincorporating it? Thanks

Have used this for some time now. I got the app to print packing slips from PayPal transactions without the pricing info. It has worked very nicely until today. Now when I print a packing slip, the print preview indicates that I am printing to the printer ... fit to page. But in fact, it is scaling the output to 100% and cutting off the print on the right edge. Same if I try to save to PDF.

This app works fine when it works ... don't know what the deal is here. Was there an update to Firefox that is causing this anomaly?

I have long-loved this Add-on but recently get a pop-up once actived, that says Internet connection is lost. It isn't. Only occurs when PDFing anything on FBook, on Firefox - and only when using this Add-on. It seems to disappear after if I scroll to bottom of page, but I invariably forget and it ends up on every PDF'd page so I have to repeat the task . I have no idea what is causing it to pop up, have looked in configs but nothing in there. Can only assume its something in the Add-on that's causing it to false positive.

In Aliexpress for Details for Order is view more working, not save in HTML or pdf is missing picture from view more.

This is a great add-on and helpful for when I print articles or pages for use in class to limit the wasted paper. The latest version, though, has problems with the rendering of the format menu when changing text and layout. I hope that gets fixed in the next version. I am not sure if this is because I am on firefox beta. This add-on also functions better in chrome, generally, but I think these are due to limitations of firefox's print preview.

I am still having trouble with the format menu. The boxes are not aligned with the settings so it is difficult to adjust formatting.

Kann sehr viel, ist aber ziemlich überladen. Simplere Tools wie "Nuke Anything" reichen meist aus.

J'ai un soucis avec certain site par exemple, https://www.malekal.com/osfmount-monter-et-convertir-des-iso-img-bin-dd-nrg-afd-vhd/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=osfmount-monter-et-convertir-des-iso-img-bin-dd-nrg-afd-vhd où il manque pratiquement la majorité des images dans le PDF généré. Cela me fait pareil avec Print Firendly and PDF. Est-ce que c'est normal? Quelqu'un rencontre les mêmes problèmes que moi avec ce site?

This extension would be quite nice, IFF the page content wouldn't near-always print over the page header and footers.

Now the extensions seems to offer 2 methods to combat above behaviour, both of which fail to work for me:

Simplify seems to honor these settings, but deletes a bit too much for many pages.

Using the Options page in the tools submenu seems to offer the option to set content margins, but is ignored. Even unsetting headers/footers does still print headers and footers, even if firefox is restarted between save and print attempt.

Example page for rendering: e.g.
prima-coffee.com/learn/article/brewing-guides/v60-brew-method-review/28774

Note that the pre-quantum print-edit was an excellent add-on for most of the (saner) web pages.

Thanks for this. Very sophisticated, however, I'm looking to print the images of videos on a web psge as pdf or directly to my printer. It seems that FF does not support this (Edge and Chrome do). When I print preview a web page with a video playing all I get is a blank or black box where the video should be. I was hoping your addon would allow this, but I think this a an underlying flaw in FF by design. Please advise. Thx again.

(I have reset my pc, installing FF from scratch)

I loved Print Edit before the big upgrade a few years ago. The new features may be a big hit with some users but I just like it better when it's working. I'm using it on a Windows laptop (the most recent version.) Now it will only print the first page of your edited document. This is a big problem. Can you re-release the old version under a different name or something?

Does what it's supposed to 90% of the time. saving as .pdf. BUT trying to save as .html web page brings a "cannot save as web page unless version 12 or later is installed." Installed version is 23.2. WHAT?

The new version of this add on is much too complicated. There is no way to quickly toggle back and forth between print preview and edit mode.

And sadly, it may be the way that web design is going that keeps the extension as complicated as it is. It should be much easier to keep the unique printable content -- in other words the "article" on a news page or blog, and ditch the rest.

I have not used it yet I will make a report as soon as i have tried it!!.

okay

Very disappointed by new requirements to access ALL data on websites. Doesn't anyone else see this as a huge security breach?

UPDATE based on DW-dev's comments: I was not aware that the legacy Print Edit has such broad access. This is alarming. So in the vein of correcting these ills, the default Firefox permissions do not give me comfort. For example, does PE WE have access to my financial institution's open website in a separate tab, when I'm interested in printing a New York Time's article in my current tab? While I have no reason to question your word, it's hard to know and feel comfortable with what is going on beneath the surface. PE WE could be scraping all my website data, and I would never know.

For some reason, the "Save as PDF" doesn't seem to work. Nothing happens. Firefox 58.0.1 64-bit.
