Print a page and Save as PDF in Chrome on iPhone & iPad

Google Chrome app offers the option to print the page using the connected device printer. We can also customize the options in print preview.

Alternatively, we can save the web page into PDF files to make a local copy, which can be opened on any PDF reader or shared using any medium.

In this guide, I have shared written instructions + video tutorial about:

Print the Website Pages in Chrome app

  3. Tap on the Share apple share icon icon in the URL bar.

  6. Select a printer from the list and hit the Print command button.

Chrome will send a print instruction to the printer, and the selected web page will be a printer per your needs.

Within the Print options, apart from selecting a printer, we can choose the range of pages to be printed within the document and the number of copies to be paper printed.

We can also check the print preview to see if the output appears as needed.

  1. Everything worked perfectly except that it saved 15 blank pages on my iPad. I can do it on my laptop but I was hoping I could do it here as well.

    1. Maybe the page you’re trying to save as PDF has Infinity Scrolling like, Instagram, FB, and Twitter. That’s why you’ve got 15 blank pages.

      You should consider changing the Range from ‘All Pages’ to the number of pages you need to save.

    1. If there is no connected printer, you cannot print a hard copy. However, if you want to save it as a PDF file, tap on the preview pages to see the option to store as PDF.
