I dont really get the use-case for this.
macOS has had print to pdf for any app since its inception, iOS has had it for at least the last couple of versions, surely Windows and Android have similar functionality built in by now too?
- k1m 9y agoThe idea is to produce a PDF that makes the article more readable than if you relied on the default print output of the site itself. In somes cases, e.g. a site that's gone to the trouble of creating a good print stylesheet, printing from the site itself will probably create a more readable output than this. But many sites don't do that. There's also the use case of automating PDF creation from code. For example, automatically sending a PDF to your printer (some wireless printers can now be set up with email addresses) of articles you save to read later in a read-later service.
