- Take a screenshot by pressing the side or top button and the volume up button simultaneously.
- Tap the preview in the bottom left corner before it disappears.
- Choose the “Full Page” option in the top right corner.
- The Full Page option will only appear when there is more than one page worth of content on-screen
- You can preview all the pages, and use markup before saving it.
- Or can also tap the crop icon, a square-shaped icon next to “Done” to edit what part of the Full Page you want to save.
- Tap “Done” in the top-left corner to save or you can also click the share button in the top right.
With this new iOS option, taking a scrolling screenshot or “Full Page” screenshot provides you with a PDF of everything on a document, webpage, or a note in Apple’s apps.
