Paparazzi! is a small utility for Mac OS X that makes screenshots of webpages. This very simple tool takes screenshots of websites which do not fit on one screen. You specify the desired width, minimal height and the URL. The program displays a preview and you can save the screenshot to PNG, JPEG, TIFF, or PDF.
It's written in Objective-C using the Cocoa API and the WebKit framework... It was inspired by webkit2png which is a commandline tool written by Paul Hammond in pyObjC, so all intellectual credit for the basic functionality goes to him ;)

What's New
Version 0.5.6b:
Worked around an error when adding URLs to the batch window via AppleScript.
Got rid of the token field for filename formatting. Leopard likes to collapse spaces in them.
Allow scrolling and show the resize indicator in the "Interact with Web View" sheet under Leopard, since the various redraw/update issues appear to be fixed.
Hopefully fixed crashing when the version-check hits a redirect.
Requirements
PPC / Intel, Mac OS X 10.3 or later.

Works fine for me in Snow Leopard 10.6.1 as well.
In Safari when I 'print to PDF' I have to nav thru several windows to get to the correct folder where I want to save the PDF. If I'm saving many webpages I is tedious and robotic, something software/scrip should do easily. Some forums have nested info that needs to be scrolled thru and linked pages to view the entire article, hence '>> Next Page'. This stuff is really irritating. I would like to just press SHIFT F1 and get a PDF that is a complete copy of a ALL text and Pictures of a webpage including nested text and linked text.

The deed's been done, though.

I discovered that sometimes when it doesn't quite get the picture you want (since it has to actually load the url you give it again, and sometimes it loads differently in the paparazzi window), there is a trick.
1) save the webpage that you want it to take a snapshot of as a webarchive.
a) I only know how to do this in Safari, all you do is press command+S, and save it to your desktop as a web archive. easy.
2) open up the web archive in safari, and copy the location (it will be something like "file:///Users/Desktop/blah.webarchive")
3) put that location in the paparazzi URL box, and it will load exactly what you saved as a web archive.
I hope that somebody finds this tip helpful!
It's a great app!

CONSUMER is absolutely right. If the developer would add the two features he suggested, this application would be perfect and the best of it's kind.

Some things I would like to see:
1. An updated crop feature; it currently confuses me. Personally, I would like to select what I want saved/croppped in the preview window, because I am not very good at the guessing currently required.
2. A way to automatically add the captured webpage url to the file details / spotlight comments section. 'Tis handy to know whence I grabbed the webpage.
thanks for sharing this application!

Beta because the help files aren't done and some things need to be tweaked, but if you've been having issues with 0.4.3 or want to use batching or Automator stuff, there it is.
It won't work on 10.3.9, though; it crashes on startup (I fixed one crash and had it crash again, in another place, so I decided I should at least put something out for the 10.4 people :/).

I've tried varying the width, to compensate text-wrapping, but I still can't manage to get it within the 16,000 maximum value.
Can this be fixed to a much higher value?
Other than this, I just cannot stress enough how absolutely GREAT this application is! It's exactly what I've been looking for, for such a long time.
Thank you,

It seems to be an off and on thing. Though it does tend to happen on very long pages.

Apparently there is a limitation on the size of a page that may be captured when saving in pdf format.
For example, the following page will look fine in the preview pane, but will be truncated in the final output:
http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/117/features-message-in-a-bottle_Printer_Friendly.html
I only just noticed this bug, and looking through my archives, I see that I have a bunch of incomplete pdf files. ack.

It's part of Apple's print dialog.

2) That might be the cause of the truncation; perhaps the page becomes bigger than the PDF stuff likes.

But, if the site requires a login, you get a screenshot of the login page instead of what's behind it, even if you already logged in with your browser.

Regardless, I'll be attempting to come up with a good solution for this that doesn't change what functionality/behavior there already is.
