Save any page as PDF

What is PDF Mage?
PDF Mage is a Firefox add-on designed to convert any web page into a high-quality PDF file. It features simple operation, allowing you to save the current page with only a single click. An Internet connection is needed as the extension uses an external API for the conversion process. The resulting PDF is instantly downloadable, no watermark applied. Note that it can't capture pages with frames, Flash animation, or locally saved pages. To use, just install the add-on, navigate to the page you want to save, and click the PDF Mage button.
