Unable to Save website as Multipage PDF

Question

I have seen this in other posts but have not found a resolution. Please let me know if this is a known bug and I am wasting my time trying to uncover the proper setting(s). I am licensed for the Pro version.

I am going to certain websites and trying to capture them to multipage PDFs. I am aware there are options to Ask, Create Automatically or Do Not Create multipage PDF files, but changing this option seems to have no effect. It is capturing the page at a percentage smaller than 100% and keeping the capture to one page rather than creating multiples at the full size. I have been testing all the settings to no avail.

Here is a sample link that I have tested. Tell me if you are able to print this to a multiple page tiff and if so what your settings look like. Also-- when using Chrome, the page header displays multiple times in the resulting PDF which is also an issue. It does not do this in IE.

Hello, The current version performs automatic splitting the resulting image into multiple pages using this rule: - The height of the page (not image) is set to 1.41 x image width. This is the basic A4 proportion. - If the image is bigger than the calculated height, it's being split to pages. If it isn't, the whole capture is being fit into one page. However, you can tell FireShot not to split captures into pages, but this works only if you save to PDF from the Editor - I mean the settings you mentioned in your post. I apologize for such a weird behavior - we'll introduce a new dialog in one of the next updates to address this problem. This new Save as dialog will allow users to specify different page settings, such as Margins, Page size, splitting, orientation and how often Headers and Footers should be inserted.
