Issue descriptionSteps to reproduce the problem: Story: 1. I want to print a webpage to PDF 2. The PDF was either planned to circulate electronically, or the intention was to print the webpage via thermal printer later via meters long paper rolls and thus page breaks are not necessary 3. In the chrome's print to PDF function, none of those option have unlimited page length and all of them would create page break. What is the expected behavior? 1. There should be an endless option that allow users printing a long (either vertically or horizontally or both dimensions) webpage into a single page PDF 2. There should be a custom page size option 3. There should also exists an option of printing an webpage to an image instead of PDF What went wrong? None of those expected options exists Did this work before? No Chrome version: 70 Channel: stable OS Version: 8.0 Flash Version: This is a feature request mainly for Chrome for Android but it would be nice if Chrome on other platforms also have such options.

Comment 4 looks like spam, so I have marked it as such.

Does there exist any browser today that can do what you want? Whether Chromium outputs PDFs or images, there are limits in file formats for the length. So "endless" is not feasible. What you could do is specify a very long page size. Would that work for you?

The file that I wished to print contain about one or two thousands line of text so a very long page size would be enough in this particular case, but actually if the "very long page size" route is chosen then there is a possibility that it might be longer than needed. Would it be possible to read the page size from the browser?

Does someone on the print team know how this might be done, or who to assign to? |
