Print pages to PDF 0.5.0.2.1
Print pages to PDF 0.5.0.2.1 is officially dead I guess. On v28 it does absolutely nothing now.
I could find no way to contact the developer perhaps someone would be able to do that?
The 5.0.6 version is no longer on his support page. All links are dead.

Try this fix for 0.5.0.2.1:
PS: Download XPI -> Rename to ZIP -> Extract processPdf.js -> Edit processPdf.js -> Replace processPdf.js in ZIP -> Rename to XPI -> Install.

Gets it to trying to save but doesn't complete. Shows as 100% with the throbber rotating for over 5 minutes.

Re: Print pages to PDF 0.5.0.2.1
That's strange, I'll send you the resulting xpi that works for me via PM to check.
UPD: As it turned out, the reason was that Print pages to PDF works only on Pale Moon 32-bit (see Limitations).

Hello Justoff, I have tried to follow your instructions and cannot seem to get it to work.
I have gone to the PM 32 bit version.
I downloaded the .xpi
I changed it to a zip.
I opened it up.
I found the processPdf.js
I found the lines you show.
I copied your edit and replaced the old one.
Saved edit.
imported the updated edit to the zip.
changed it back to .xpi
installed.
Tried to print to pdf, Nadda, zip. Just sits there.
Am I missing something here?
I even re-checked the processPdf.js file to see if the changes had been saved. No issues there.

Sorry, but I'm a little confused by this report. Are there any errors in the console?Tried to print to pdf, Nadda, zip. Just sits there.
PS: I hope you are using 32bit Pale Moon?

from your quote and replaced the one in the file. I will try it again
by just adding those two //.
No, no errors, just wouldn't do anything. Would load the window but then
would just sit there dead.

(I'll just note that I made the changes & tried it & it worked.
The reason for 32-bit is that he includes a binary file [.dll] in there, & that is 32-bit.)

Ok, I got it. Sorry to bother you. I'm sure in the tech world your instructions
were spot on. But my dumb ass stumbled all over it.
Thank you for the patch JustOff.
