For owners of an iPad or an iPhone, here is a handy trick that could perhaps simplify your life: convert a Web page into a PDF document. If this trick is likely to interest you, we explain how to do it with the help of a tablet running iPadOS 15 (or later). Note that the following trick works the same way with an iPhone.
With the increasing number of regular iOS mobile operating system updates, such as the recent iOS 16 update, Apple may surprise iPad or iPhone users by hiding tricks that can be very useful in the everyday life, whether in the office or at home. In this article, we will show you how convert a web page to a PDF document if you don’t have a printer.
- To do this, simply install or open the Chrome application of the iPad or iPhone and enter the URL address of the desired web page. Then, press the “Share” icon and select “Print” (see below).
- A dialog opens and, of course, there is no printer attached to the iPad or iPhone. But next to the mention “Print options” there is a blue icon surrounded by red in the screenshot below.
- This is when another dialog box also opens and invites you to save the document in question, which is now in PDF format. To do this, it is recommended to press “Save to Files”.
- You can save in iCloud or “On my iPad”. To illustrate this trick, we chose “On my iPad”. You are free to direct the file to the desired folder. You can finally save the PDF to your tablet and use it as you see fit.
