Hi, interesting question! What is your concern vs us delivering straight to your door? We should be able to offer a variety of sizes/qualities. If though there is a reason for which we wouldn't be of help, we may consider instead

Thanks for the reply, haven't thought about this that way. Honest answer, we haven't decided on a pricing plan just yet (thoughts are always welcome). Will defo consider making more prominent that it is currently free + T&Cs

Thanks for sharing. Save as pdf is quite crappy, at least from a reading experience point of you. Screenbreak would definitely offer the option to send your pdf to ereaders and support formats like epub/mobi, since our .pfds are derive

Thanks for sharing, that's cool and I can only assume the technical challenge back then. Hope we have a better ending but if you are still in touch with anyone from that dev team, plz intro me (yorgos@myscreenbreak.com). Maybe we can g

Not yet, because we do not save articles via url but via our extension which snapshots html. That way, we can offer our service to user's paid content as well. Having said that, and based on the feedback we read tonight in this thread,

Print on demand is a challenge by itself. Depending on where your offer the service, you can source local small printing facilities that focus on PoD. I have done that in UK where I am based. However for global reach you would need to partn

Hello, tons to unpack here! - We do not support existing .pdf files, but defo in our radar - We didn't think too many people will have archives of html files, we could very well be wrong. Not supporting this currently but something we

Haha, in a former life sure :p Maybe in this as well. You can try the file-print version and Screenbreak, hopefully there is a difference to the better. Our service will be free for you to do so (up to a certain usage degree), will be glad
