Firefox Issue [Export/Save Webpage as PDF with Hyperlinks intact]
I've been researching for a long time how it’s possible to save a website as a PDF with Firefox by keeping the hyperlinks active. The applications that Firefox offers are inadequate. This means that if I want to save pages on different sites outside of the web search, they are not saved correctly as PDFs. There are applications that also keep hyperlinks active, but with the problem that the scaling of a page no longer corresponds to what it actually has. Alternatively, reference is often made to other browsers such as Chrome or Opera. I know it's running there as it should be, but I want to keep using Firefox. When I search on YouTube I only find trivial things like how to save a PDF in general. I already know how to save PDFs in general, but it is explicitly possible that hyperlinks also remain active which seems like nobody is interested in. This is a major problem. I just don't understand why something as trivial as an A4 sized page of hyperlinks requires 7+ hours of fruitless research? It seems like I'm someone who's only interested in simply having an HTML to PDF with active hyperlinks. Do any of you have experience with this situation? I would like to mention that I also tried wkhtmltopdf. But the conversion with this tool is cumbersome and is no longer necessary for “just a quick save”. My question: How is it possible?

Did you try to use the built-in print to PDF feature?
Hello cor-el.
"Did you try to use the built-in print to PDF feature?" Sadly, this was already an approach that could not solve the problem.
"https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-print-web-pages-firefox" This example shows not a solution for printing / exporting a webside to pdf with hyperlinks intact. I have no options for select / deselect for active hyperlinks and I don't want to change the printed / exported webside.
