About Paperscout - Web Page to PDF (Text & Image)
Web page to PDF capture, made simple. Save any webpage, article, blog post or web app as a clean PDF in one click — text or full-page image.
Paperscout turns any web page into a clean PDF in one click — and it is built to be private: everything happens locally in your browser, with no account, no servers, and no tracking.
TWO CAPTURE MODES
- Text (true PDF): a real, lightweight PDF with selectable text and clickable links. Perfect for normal articles, documentation and reference pages.
- Image (screenshot): captures the page exactly as rendered, even complex web apps, dashboards and interactive e-learning players that ordinary "print to PDF" cannot handle. It even scrolls inner content panels and stitches everything into a multi-page PDF.
FOR CONTENT CREATORS & LOCAL-AI WORKFLOWS
Researching a blog post or web article? Capture your web sources as clean, real-text PDFs, drop them in a folder, and feed them to a local AI on your own machine to summarize, analyze and help you write. Because the PDFs contain real selectable text (not just images), they are ready for AI out of the box — no OCR needed. And because everything stays on your computer, your research sources never leave your machine. Use "capture all tabs" to gather every source into a single PDF in one click.
BUILT FOR TECHNICAL WORK
If you study for certifications or work with technical documentation (networking, IT, engineering), Paperscout is made for you: archive vendor docs, command references and interactive e-learning modules into clean PDFs you can keep, search and annotate offline.
KEY FEATURES
- One-click capture, or the Alt+P keyboard shortcut.
- Automatic file name with date and time, or your own name.
- Optional "remove ads and clutter" for cleaner output.
- Capture all open tabs into a single combined PDF.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
- No data collected, no analytics, no account.
