For Medium
Capture a Medium story as an image or visual PDF
Keep a visual reference of a story’s layout, chart, or selected passage as it appears in your browser. Page to Image captures the loaded page; it does not bypass membership or access limits.
When a visual capture helps
Keep the rendered story view
Use a visual capture when you want to discuss a page layout or mark a specific part of a story. For text-focused printing, your browser’s Print-to-PDF option may be a better fit.
A local workflow
Capture, refine, and save.
Open content you are allowed to read
Sign in or access the story through your normal browser session. Load the section you need; Page to Image does not bypass paywalls or fetch restricted content.
Capture the current page
Choose Full page for the loaded story, Visible area for the screen, or Selected area for a passage or image. Check that the content you want has finished loading.
Prepare a visual reference
Crop, add a short note, or blur private details in Capture review. Export a PNG, JPEG, or image-only PDF locally.
Choose the right export
For a text-focused document, use browser printing
Use your browser’s Print-to-PDF option when selectable text and a print-style document matter. Page to Image is for the visual page as rendered on screen.
What to know before you capture
- Only content available in your browser session can be captured; no paywall or access-control bypass is provided.
- The PDF is image-based and does not provide searchable article text or active links.
- Check the story’s terms and attribution requirements before redistributing captured content.
Your capture and edits stay in your browser. Page to Image does not upload page contents or screenshots for processing.
Common questions about Medium
Can I save a Medium story as an image?
Yes. Capture the loaded page and export it as PNG or JPEG. You can also save an image-based PDF.
Does this bypass Medium’s paywall?
No. Page to Image captures content already available in your browser. It does not bypass membership or access controls.
Can the PDF text be searched or copied?
No. The PDF contains the visual capture. Use browser printing when text selection is important.
