Save web page in latest Opera with hyperlinks?

[Ramesh]

Hi,
I tried https://www.pdf-xchange.com/product/pdf-xchange-pro with latest Opera browser. PDF I get does not have active URLs.
Is Opera supported by program? PDF seems store web page as image based content.

Hi,

I suppose you tried printing via Print > PDF-XChange Standard printer.

See the answer on your question here:
https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=33619

To have a better result, you should try via right-mouse-click on the web-page and then click "Save as PDF...".

Kind regards.

Thanks.

of course I use Opera build in Save as PDF at present as the only way to preserve URLs, but problem is that saved PDF has always only one (sometimes a very) long page, and second I cannot before save PDF remove some headers and delete unwanted content...

So I was hoping that PDF-XChange Editor may come as help...

After "Save as PDF...", you can open the resulting PDF in PDF-XChange Editor and then split the page(s), remove unneeded content, etc.

Or, if you have Google Chrome installed, use the built-in "Print > Save as PDF" feature, for a somewhat better result ?

Kind regards.

Hello, Willy Van Nuffel

Correct me If I am wrong, but is Opera not Chromium based now? (I do not use it myself, so am unsure) If it is, it should be able to utilize our Chromium web browser plugin (which Edge, Chrome, and Brave browsers can all access). This plugin is included as part of our "Standard printer" install package, so if you have a license for the "PRO" bundle, you should be able to use it without trouble.

Do note that generation of web links when printing relies on the "text" that is present within the document. Many browsers these days, Chrome included, send "shape" data instead of "text" when printing, and this prevents us from generating web page links during/after the print process. To get around this, again, using the chromium based web browser plugin will be you ticket to greatness.

Kind regards,

So, there is such fine function in PDF-XChange Editor? ...My one page PDFs are sometimes really long.

Hello, Ramesh

Our extension will not appear on the store, as it requires the appropriate software to be installed for use. You will want to download and install either the "standard printer" or the "PDF-XChange PRO" bundle from our products page in order to find this.
Note also that we simply make the extension available on your device, we have no way to push it out to your browsers, and so it can take a few minutes before it is detected and you are prompted to enable it, depending on the browser.

Kind regards,
