Paparazzi: Screenshot a whole web page

paparazziNothing to do with Apple Mail, but such a good utility that it deserves a plug anyway! I cannot tell you how often I have wished for an app that would do this. Now, I have discovered one.

Paparazzi enables you to take a screenshot of a whole web page. Not just the bit that you can see on the screen (Apple’s built-in screen capture does that), but the whole page. Launch the application and you are presented with a window like this:

paparazzi_screenshot_300px

Type in a URL and the page loads as a preview. You can specify the dimensions of the capture and save the screenshot as a TIFF, PNG or JPEG file. Outstanding!

The application is freeware (with the code available under the GPL licence) and is available from the developer’s website.

    This is a great application. We recently highlighted this on our site and it is one of the most popular ones in the list.

    Download Paparazzi and follow the instructions to install it.

    Open it.

    Enter the URL of your blog into the text box provided in Paparazzi.

    Click ‘Capture’

    Save it somewhere.

    Done!

    Or do you mean create a screenshot of the whole site?

    The only way you could so that, as far as I know (and I am not anexpert) is to screenshot as above page by page. Sounds like a pain.

    I meant the whole site. Yea it is a pain, I’m trying to find a software (free ofcourse) that will take a pic of the whole site. Thanks for you advice anyways.

    Ah, I see. You can’t “take a picture” of a web site, but you can cache it for off-line browsing using an app like Web Dumper or WebCopier (neither is free, I’m afraid).

    Is that what you want to do?
