Not just the part you see in your browser window, all the way from top of the page to the bottom. The other cool feature I found is it gave me the entire screen. I can save it as a JPEG, HTML, PDF and even a couple other formats. And while it took take a little while to process the capture, it was pretty great because it gave me file format options for saving my document. I think I’d much rather have a picture, something that I can easily call up on any device or email over to a client without having to worry about making sure all of the images and styles are still legit online. All of the images and file links are sourced to the server, so if images or styles change online, the pages won’t render correctly, and I’m left with a less-than-adequate rendition of what we started with…and I really will be digging through to find a better copy. While it’s far more streamlined than any option offering conversion of web pages to images, it only saves the pages as HTML. The first possibility is a Chrome extension, Batch Link Downloader. And so my search begins… Batch Link Downloader (Chrome Extension) We need to make sure as new features are added or software is upgraded we don’t blow up the approved formatting. We’d like to have a copy of these files because as we update the web pages and software regularly. However, it also leaves us without a copy of what the page looked like initially. Hence the switch to building pages directly in WordPress and skipping the mock-ups step is a double win. It’s hard for someone who doesn’t build websites every day to imagine an image as an actual website. Previously, we mocked up each page using graphic design software and shared it with clients as an image, which was great for creativity but not as great for usability. Here’s the backstory: We build on WordPress, and with the improved page-building features of late, we’ve found we can fairly easily build simple static pages right within the WordPress interface. Why would I even want to do such a thing? Glad you asked. My quest for today is to figure out a way to save our finished websites as images with the intention of creating a mini of our websites after we take them live. At MayeCreate, we love us some digital marketing tools.
