PrintFriendly Pro Subscription is the paid option for the Print, PDF & Email WordPress plugin. It removes the ads displayed in the free version’s print, PDF and email confirmation window for the subscribed domain. The add-on detects page content automatically, so publishers do not need a separate print.css file. PrintFriendly describes Pro as GDPR compliant.

Visitor print and PDF options

Visitors can print a page, make a PDF or email page content. Before printing or making a PDF, they can edit a preview by changing text and image sizes or deleting content they do not need. PDFs can include clickable links and use A4 or Letter paper sizes. The plugin works on HTTP and HTTPS sites, including password-protected websites.

Publisher settings

Publishers can pick which print, PDF and email options to display, then adjust the buttons and output to fit their site.

• Add custom headers and footers to print and PDF output.
• Choose a button style, or use custom text with an image or button.
• Include a copyright notice on printed pages and PDFs.
• Apply custom CSS to the print or PDF page.
• Choose the JavaScript or non-JavaScript option.

The plugin is compatible with Social Snap, Social Pug, NovaShare and Shareaholic.

Language and data handling

The interface detects the user’s browser language and supports 30 languages, including English, German, Spanish, French, Hebrew, Korean, and Simplified and Traditional Chinese.

PDFs are generated on the service’s server. Page content is sent or stored for PDF generation, and the finished PDF is kept temporarily so the visitor can download it before it is permanently deleted. With the non-JavaScript option, the preview is generated on the server and cached for a few minutes before deletion.

For email sharing, the server stores the email address and message to send the email. They are permanently deleted after the email has been sent and found not to be from a spammer. Server log documents are created and deleted. The service may use non-personally identifying information, such as browser type, language, referrer and date or time, to analyze usage, and may publish aggregate data.

Setup

Install and activate Print, PDF & Email on the WordPress site, then configure its print, PDF, email, display and customization settings. Select the Pro subscription for the subscribed domain and review the output on the site. Publishers can adjust the button presentation, add headers or footers, apply CSS and choose the JavaScript or non-JavaScript option.
