SingleFile was ultra-valuable for this.

If anyone has a similar use-case, I wrote some pretty rough (and slow) code to post-process SingleFile's output to remove any HTML that wasn't contributing to the presentational render by launching puppeteer and comparing pixels. It's available here: https://github.com/mieko/trailcap

I like these because it makes it easier for me to make manual edits when necessary and it's a better solution for long term archiving (IMO). But I would love to add your project to my workflow.

Now, having said that, the text in SingleFile-Lite's "Notable features of SingleFile Lite" sound like a list of issues :-P. It looks like these are issues with Chrome, but do you know if/how these "improvements" will affect Firefox?

For example, try saving my home page: https://andrewrondeau.herokuapp.com/

The img tags are converted correctly, but there's still <figure class=image><a href="https://andrewrondeau.herokuapp.com/... in the single HTML file.

Even better, just search for ="http

Edit: I think I now understand the issue. I confirm SingleFile saves only the current page and not linked images, for example.

I'm going to hijack your post for a question! I love the way you can use the editor and select "format for better readability," then save just the stripped down version of the page. I use this to send it to my e-ink device.

The question I have is whether it's possible to toggle the default save to use the formatted version automatically? I dug into the options and didn't turn anything up!

- Annotation editor > default mode > edit the page

- Annotation editor > annotate the page before saving

It's too complicated but at least it works!

Taking a snapshot of my user's screen and then display it to them later (maybe in an iFrame)?

Really!? You don't think it's trying to be condescending to try to find criticism on someone's praise, haha? Heh, aanyway :) You feel product is bad!? So weird!! I guess you find there what you bring to it. Wonder what you're protecting there, if you share more of your thinking, we can do know you more. Even so, I think we can just celebrate gildas' achievement! :)

I mean, if I want to save pages over the next 11 months, should I install SinglePage or SinglePage-lite?
