[Q] Recommendations for Printing to pdf? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I find I can print pdfs of web pages in Firefox and Dolphin HD, but there are no headers or footers with urls and page numbers like most printouts from a computer would have. Any suggestions?
What other browsers have this capability?
Are there any system print to pdf utilities that may allow creating pdfs from other applications as well as web browsers?
Thanks in advance

Any comments or suggestions?
Thanks.

[Q] Printing web page to PDF?

I find I can print pdfs of web pages in Firefox and Dolphin HD, but there are no headers or footers with urls and page numbers like most printouts from a computer would have. Also, Dolphin will not print logged in web pages to PDF, but Firefox will. Any suggestions?
What other browsers have this capability?
Are there any system print to pdf utilities, such as a driver for a virtual printer that creates PDF files, that may allow creating pdfs from other applications as well as web browsers?
Thanks

[Q] Saving Web Page HTML

Dolphin HD can save a web page as an HTML file, but it asks for the filename and supplies a poor default such as "index.html". I wish the default file name could be the title of the web page.
Are there any other browsers that can save a web page as HTML? I do not find this ability in the standard browser, FireFox, Skyfire, or Opera Mobile (unless I overlooked something). Opera Mobile does provide a save, but its in a proprietary format, not what I am looking for.
Thanks

[Q] PDF printer/converter with "multiple pages per page" option

Hello everyone!
I'm looking for an Android app that converts/prints documents (.doc, .ppt, even other PDF) to PDF, but with a twist: I need it to be able to put multiple pages on a single page.
My user case is the following: I have a PPT converted to PDF, where each page of the PDF is a single slide. However, I want to make it a PDF with 2 slides per A4 page, right there on my tablet (I do know how to do it on the PC). Note that I already have apps that print to PDF, page per page! What I still couldn't find is one that has the option to put multiple pages on a single page!
Is there an android app that can do this?
PS: I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but it seemed the most appropriate. If I'm wrong, I'm sorry.
btw what are u using to print pdfs in the standard way?; I mean a slide per page
I am looking for apps to generate pdf, from a note text, image, etc using the SHARE/Send features
Thnx

Browser with integrated PDF viewer?

Its a pain to always have to open up a PDF viewer app over and over again when i open up PDFs in multiple tabs in chrome,
(unless there is a PDF viewer capable of having multiple tabs i am not aware of)
so im just wondering if theres a browser (or a browser add on) that would allow me to view PDFs within the browser, like i do on my desktop ~
You can do it with firefox using an add-on called Pdf Viewer, imo is a bit slow but better than nothing i guess.

[Q] Shortcut to web browser

Hello,
I have an ACER Liquid E2 running Android 4.2
I have installed 3 web browsers, and I can see that some websites are much better browsed with one browser than with another. But it is not the same browser which best browses all the websites.
So I want to have a shortcut which points to website A with Chrome, another shortcut which points to website B with Firefox, etc. The problem is that when I create shortcuts to a website on my desktop, it always launches the default browser. And if I do not define a default browser, I have to say which browser I want to use each time I activate a shortcut. It is boring, and I do not always remember which browser is the best for each website.
So here is the question: is there a way to create shortcuts which are browser dependant and would permit me to associate one website with Chrome, another website with Firefox, .... ?
Thanks for any help.

Only thing I can think of off the top of my head is using each browser's bookmark widget (Chrome, Dolphin, etc). Not every browser has them, unfortunately, but you should be able to find a generic bookmark widget that you can substitute.

Hello es0tericcha0s,
Thanks for your answer.
Unfortunately, the shortcuts created from a browser bookmark seem to be nothing more than shortcuts to the URL. They do not seem to contain information on the browser to use. I have tried creating shortcuts from the standard Android browser as well as from Chrome, and they all behave the same: they use the default browser if it is defined, otherwise they ask which browser to use. The only difference is the look of the shortcut icon.
I was thinking that perhaps a one-line script could do the job. But I have not been able to locate the executable files for Chrome, Firefox, or the standard browser.
Could anyone help ?
