Content

Bring an article in, choose what to keep, and save a clean PDF with no menus, ads or links.

Open a page saved from your browser

In Edge or Chrome, scroll to the end of the article, press Ctrl S and choose Webpage, Single File. Drop the file here or open it. Pictures come along every time.

Copy and paste

Select the article, press Ctrl C, then Ctrl V anywhere in this window.

Fetch from a web address

Paste the address in the bar above. In the browser version most sites refuse this; the desktop app can fetch any public page.
