Website Screenshot & URL/HTML to PDF: Full Page, Mobile, Bulk

Capture any web page as an image or a PDF — the whole page or just the first screen, on desktop or a phone — in bulk, with a download link for each file.

• Screenshots: PNG, JPEG or WebP; full page (up to 20,000 px) or viewport; a single element by CSS selector.
• PDF: save web pages or your own raw HTML (invoices, reports, templates) as PDF — A4, Letter, Legal, A3, A5, portrait or landscape, print or screen styles.
• Devices: desktop 1920×1080, laptop 1366×768, iPad Pro 11, iPhone 15 Pro, Galaxy S24 (real pixel density), or a custom viewport; dark mode.
• Clean captures: floating cookie and consent banners are hidden, lazy-loaded images are loaded by scrolling, and you can inject your own CSS (e.g. hide chat widgets).
• Safe: requests to private network addresses are blocked.

Pages that answer with an HTTP error (e.g. 404) are captured as they look, with status showing the code. A page that does not load at all gets an error field instead and is not charged.

Pricing

Event	Price	What counts
screenshot	$4 per 1,000	one screenshot or PDF

Plus Apify's standard start fee of $0.05 per 1,000 runs. The run stops before it would exceed your maximum charge per run.

Limits

• Pages behind a login, CAPTCHA or strong bot protection are captured as the visitor sees them (e.g. a login form).
• Full-page screenshots are capped at 20,000 px height; longer pages are cut.
• Some sites block data-centre IP addresses; such pages may load with an error or a block page.
