Captorify

Feature

Turn full webpages into clean screenshot PDFs

Export captured webpages as PDFs from the Captorify extension. For image files already on your device, use the free screenshot-to-PDF converter.

Step 01

When PDF is useful

Export a webpage capture as a PDF when you need a document to attach to a ticket or keep with review notes. The extension places long captures on multiple pages, so check the text size and page breaks before sending it.

  • Best for tickets, reviews, and records that get filed.
  • Turns a long capture into paginated pages.
  • PDF export is available on the free tier.

If you already have PNG, JPEG or WebP images, use the free Screenshot to PDF converter. It creates image-based pages without selectable OCR text or live source links.

Step 02

Export workflow

Capture the page, then export to PDF. Captorify lays the capture out as A4 pages, choosing portrait or landscape automatically from the capture shape, and paginates content that runs past a single page.

  • A4 output, orientation chosen automatically.
  • Consistent page margins and automatic pagination.

Open the PDF and check the text size and page breaks. Automatic pagination can split an image through a line of text.

Step 03

Full-page handling

Long captures are scaled to the page width and continued onto following pages. Check the breaks because an image can split through a line of text.

The same height limits as full-page capture apply: extremely tall pages are capped, with a truncation warning, so split a giant page into parts if it exceeds the cap.

Step 04

Source context

When you want a PDF to record where and when a capture came from, you can add an optional URL and timestamp overlay. This stamps the source page address and capture time onto the export.

  • Optional overlay adds the source URL and capture time.
  • Off by default; turn it on when you want source context.
  • The overlay is a Pro feature.

The URL and timestamp overlay is an opt-in Pro feature; it is off by default, so a standard PDF has no source footer unless you turn it on.

Step 05

What PDF context does not prove

A URL and timestamp overlay records what Captorify captured and when, which is useful context for a ticket or review. It is not a tamper-proof or legally certified record of the page.

Treat the overlay as helpful provenance for everyday work, not as forensic proof of what a page contained at a given moment.

Step 06

Related workflows

Before exporting a PDF that leaves your team, redact anything sensitive so the private details are removed from the pages themselves. For very long pages, start from a clean full-page capture.

Step 07

Convert an existing screenshot into readable pages

The free public converter accepts multiple PNG, JPG or WebP images. Reorder them, choose A4 or Letter and margins, then fit short images or split tall ones across pages.

This public converter creates image-only PDFs. It does not add searchable text or the original webpage’s live links. Its settings are separate from the extension and paid cloud export workflows described on this page.

FAQ

Common questions.

Short answers about capture, privacy, sharing, and billing.

Do I need a paid plan to export a screenshot to PDF?
No. PNG, JPG, and PDF export are all available on the free tier. The optional URL and timestamp overlay on PDF is the part that requires a paid plan.
Does Captorify add a URL and timestamp to PDFs automatically?
No. The URL and timestamp overlay is opt-in and off by default. A standard PDF export has no source footer unless you enable the overlay, which is a Pro feature.
