[Solved] Is there a way to download pages from reading mode as pdf or epub on mobile?

Clicking the share button shows an option to save as pdf for me. Never tried it tho so idk if it works well.

Thanks. I tried this as well and it indeed has an option to save as pdf.

I use this extension. It's built on top of Firefox's reader view so it's similar. They also made the extension for other browsers so it's a consistent experience across all of them. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/readability-based-reader-view/

So, can I add this as xpi to mobile Firefox?

Oh, I didn't realize it wasn't available for Firefox Android. I use Kiwi on my phone and Firefox on desktop. A quick Google search says you can use Firefox Nightly to install custom add-on libraries, but I've never done that.

If it's on nightly, I guess it's sometime soon to be on main branch. Well, when that feature lands, there will be a lot of add-ons to add. :)

menu -> print -> "save as pdf"? seems to be there just like it's on desktop version
