Offprint turns the web page you're reading into a file you can keep — a clean PDF, an EPUB for your e-reader, or a Markdown document for your notes. Open any article in Safari, tap the Offprint extension, pick a format, and share it anywhere. No copy-pasting, no cluttered printouts, no account. Offprint strips the ads, banners, and pop-ups and keeps what matters: the text, the images, and the structure of the article. THREE FORMATS, ONE TAP • PDF — a clean, paginated document for printing, annotating, or archiving • EPUB — a real e-book you can send to Kindle, Apple Books, or any e-reader • Markdown — plain-text formatting that drops straight into Obsidian, Notion, Bear, or any notes app MADE FOR READING • Reader mode extracts just the article — no ads, no navigation, no cookie banners • Page content mode captures more of the page — cleaned-up text and images, not the website's layout • Built-in preview shows exactly what you'll get before you share it FITS YOUR WORKFLOW • Works directly in Safari — no switching apps, no pasting URLs • Share sheet integration: AirDrop it, save to Files, send to Kindle, attach to mail • Conversion happens on your device — nothing is uploaded, nothing is tracked WHO IT'S FOR • Readers building an offline library of articles for flights and commutes • Students and researchers archiving sources as PDFs • Note-takers clipping articles into their Markdown knowledge base • E-reader owners who'd rather read long articles on a paper-like screen Save the page in front of you — in the format you actually use.
