How is this PDFability score calculated?: The score is based on a visual evaluation of the page after conversion. We compare the website's default print output with the optimized version generated by PrintFriendly and measure factors such as layout clarity, visual clutter, readability, and overall PDF quality.

Why does PrintFriendly sometimes create more pages than the native print version?: In some cases PrintFriendly increases the page count in order to improve readability. For example, it may expand images, restore hidden content, or improve spacing and formatting. Even when the page count increases, the resulting PDF can still be cleaner and easier to read.
