      Hello all,

      I have saved a web page as PDF using Opera, and the page size of the PDF is 1306 x 16164mm.

      I understand that Opera saves the entire web page on one long PDF page, and that's fine and what I want it to do.

      However, a width of 1.3 m and a length of 16 m resulting from the scale that Opera seems to use is unnecessary big.

      Can we set a scaling factor somewhere in Opera such that web pages are saved with the current monitor width, or with a realistic paper size as standard width, for example?

        @davidgp Instead of saving as PDF you could choose print and then set destination to "Save as PDF" - this usually creates much nicer PDFs.
