- Rated 1 out of 5by 18HopeCSF, 7 years agoComplete and absolute crap: Each time you try to use it, it creates e new tab with the page you just opened, refreshing all the page and erasing all the information it had. If you want to print a page with no info it's OK, not spectacular but OK.
I suppose it has to do with the firefox update, but the previous addons was far more reliable and useful. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13596439, 7 years agoUseless if the web page has data embedded. Excellent if it doesn't. In other words, the "prep" stage rerenders the default settings of the web page, which automatically eliminates any tables, data or page rendering options selected on the web page prior to selecting print edit. 90% of my work is on websites with embedded data tables. The old version allowed print editing of the selected version of the web page without having to rerender the web page. It worked perfectly. Now that feature no longer exists. Please add that feature to this app or allow us to use the legacy version of Print Edit. Yes, the new Print Edit WE produces a higher quality print/pdf but quality is irrelevant if you can't print the required data.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13573442, 7 years agoUsed to have an edit button next to the orientation on the print preview screen. I don't know why they got rid of this feature. Now none of my documents will print in web style.
Developer response
posted 7 years agoJust click on the Web Style button before previewing or printing. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13572884, 7 years agoIt works, but several missteps. LinkedIn: if you have clicked open the 'see more positions' under someone's bio, when the print edit page opens it is once again closed - a lot of missed information you can't print. Didn't have that problem with the old Print Edit. Also, Kroger digital coupons: in Print Edit I could view and print the objects/graphics of the coupons; it won't even open in WE - just shows a blank page.
Can these be corrected? I use the former for work as a researcher, so it's really NOT a good fit. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13572567, 7 years agoVery easy and precise control of the content of the page before printing.
Indispensable when there is a need print any "modern" Web page. - Rated 4 out of 5by Galen, 7 years agoI think this is a really handy extension.
But I think it's pretty lame to show advertising in your sample screen shots... :-\ - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13557254, 7 years agoIt is NOT working with Yahoo emails | Print ! "Cannot be used with this page" while "old Print Edit" was working !
Could you please fix it?
Thank you in advance!
Best Regards - Rated 1 out of 5by skaizun, 7 years agoIn Firefox 58 beta, this add-on creates a new tab showing the desired page. It seems to work. when I select elements of the page that I want printed, although you have to be careful about clicking within tables, frames, etc. But, when I submitted to print, the print preview showed the entire page! I'm not going to bother to waste paper and ink to see if it would have worked. Removed.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13543899, 7 years agoI used the save-as "purged" .txt format in the old Print Edit. Sure wish I could do that here. Shift-right click menu "save as .txt" saves everything, even after editing. I need "print-friendly" edited/purged text files, not oversize files full of HTML coding.
I tried selecting the entire edited text and Ctrl-C, but that doesn't put anything on the clipboard to copy into Notepad or other app to then save as .txt
Any chance we could get save-as purged txt format back?
Thank you. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12831127, 7 years agoune page en anglais majoritaire et quelques mots en français : comment faire ?
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13549423, 7 years agoGanz ehrlich: Print Edit war einfach besser! Unkompliziert und machte das was ich wollte!
Die neue Version für FF 57 macht mich nicht (hoffentlich noch nicht!) glücklich. Zu umständlich, die zu bearbeitende Seite geht in einem neuen Tab auf, wenn ich diesen Tab nach erfolgreicher Druck-Aktion wieder schliessen will, muss ich das in einem Alert-Fenster zuerst bestätigen...
Gewisse Seiten lassen sich erst gar nicht mehr bearbeiten...
Ist zwar immer noch besser als nichts, aber ich wäre wirklich sehr dankbar, wenn die einfache Funktionalität der alten Version wieder zu haben wäre!
Danke für die Arbeit, ich schätze das kostenlose Tool ja grundsätzlich sehr! - Rated 2 out of 5by MaximilianKohler, 7 years agoIf you need to print to PDF a page that you're logged into it doesn't work because it opens a new tab where you're not logged in. And if I go straight to "print preview" via right clicking the page, it only shows 1 out of 5 pages, and the page is messed up.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13538331, 7 years agoSlow, needs huge resources, does not load for large pages/graphics, highlighting (be other addons) is lost, text pieces option cannot be saved as before, needs always 2 tabs, why? As long as only WE is available for the new firefox this is a
show stopper
for firfox release 57. I'll stay with firefox 56 and non-WE PrintEdit. Even if firefox is somewhat slower...
Ergo: You should make PrintEdit non-WE kompatible for firefox 57. No other way. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12312529, 7 years agoPrint Edit was far much better. This one is not bad, but it is not better. I'm generous: I give three stars... But...
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13528986, 7 years agoI loved the old Print Edit and used it numerous times daily selecting Web Style to print online receipts. With the new WE version, when selecting Web Style for the edit, all information a receipt should contain is blank. I now have to use the snipping tool to print what I need and it takes so much longer I must rush so the page does not time out.
Another "new and improved" that is just new and the opposite of improved. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13525562, 7 years agoThis is a joke, right? Right? What a big turd this turned into. If it's not broken, DON'T FIX IT!!!
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13523946, 7 years agodon't know what you did to this extension but go back to the original print edit. Half the time this doesn't work at all. More cumbersome and have to wait for the page to load. Was so much nicer as an option in the print menu
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13183896, 7 years agoI would rate Print Edit WE 5 stars EXCEPT FOR ONE PROBLEM...In the print preview screen, the caption at the top always say page 1 of 1 regardless of whether there are 5 or 10 or more total pages in the preview. Fix that and I will rate it a 5 star app!!!
- Rated 1 out of 5by Soheil, 7 years agoif i want say in 1 word: Rubbish
1 star is so much for this. -5 star is so more appropriate
dont waste your time and dont use of it
maaaaaaaaany week - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13513751, 7 years agoI am continually frustrated that
1) there is no longer "PDF Print" choice button / box. The PDF Print capability was able to create pdf docs that retained the ability to copy characters (words, letters, numbers, sentences, etc.) to the clipboard when other pdf printers will not
2) the program will randomly not print / display whole web pages
3) the program will randomly not display all of the details shown on web pages
4) the program adds steps to its operation beyond the previous Print Edit program - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13498672, 7 years agoDOES NOT WORK since the new update to Firefox. I used the old Print Edit EVERY DAY and now I cannot get the Print Edit WE to work. Please fix or let me go back to the old Firefox!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13496925, 7 years agoGood. Very convenient. Had to get used to new update.
