Print-Friendly Web Page & PDF Maker

Paste a link and get a clean, ad-free copy of any article. Remove the parts you don't need, resize text and images, then print it or save it as a PDF.

Paste the link to an article, recipe, or blog post. You’ll get a clean copy without ads, menus, or pop-ups, ready to print or save as a PDF.

The page is fetched through our server to make the clean copy. It isn't saved, and your edits stay in your browser.

Print the article, not the website

Printing a web page straight from the browser usually means pages of navigation menus, cookie banners, sidebar ads, and comment threads around a few paragraphs you actually wanted. This tool keeps the article (headline, text, images, tables, and captions) and drops everything else, so a recipe fits on one sheet and a long read doesn't waste half its pages.

Before printing you can make the text larger or smaller, shrink or hide images to save ink, add the address of every link in brackets for a paper copy, and click away any paragraph you don't need.

Save as PDF with real text

Saving through the print dialog produces a proper PDF: the text stays selectable and searchable, links still work, and the file is named after the page title. That makes it a good way to keep a copy of an article for offline reading or to attach to an email.

Prefer an editable file? Download the clean page as .html. To paste the text somewhere without line-break problems, run it through Remove Line Breaks.

Frequently asked questions

How do I save a web page as a PDF?
Paste the page's link and click Make printable. Tidy it up if you like, then click Print / Save as PDF and choose Save as PDF (or Microsoft Print to PDF on Windows) as the destination in the print dialog. The PDF keeps real, selectable text and working links.
Can I remove parts of the page before printing?
Yes. Click Click to remove parts, then click any paragraph, image, caption, or table to delete it. Undo brings back the last removal and Restore all puts the whole article back.
Why does a page come back empty or with an error?
Some pages load their text with JavaScript after the page opens, sit behind a login or paywall, or block automated readers. Those can't be fetched from a link. For a page you're logged in to, use your browser's own print command instead.
Is this really free of ads?
Yes. The printout contains only the article: no ads, no tracking scripts, no newsletter pop-ups, and nothing from edittxt either. You can even print it without images to save ink.
What happens to the address I enter?
edittxt's server fetches the page so your browser can show a clean copy, because browsers can't read other sites directly. edittxt doesn't save the page or keep a history of what you print, and your edits never leave your browser. Images load from the original site.
