In the Firefox version for PC, you can easy "Save page" onto your hardrive. This creates an .html file, with an invisible folder attached, that enables you to store a page in your hardrive that you can both open offline with any browser and use as reference (for how the page looked, content, etc.). A PDF save, which is the only option I can see available on the Android version, keeps the content, the address and the links, but not the format. I much prefer saving in .html for this reason, as PDF printers from different providers do a serviceable job in keeping a register of the content, but a horrid job of keeping the aesthetics and readability of the original page.

I just want to know why this "Save the page " command is not available in Android, and if there are any plans for incorporating in the near future.

Thanks in advance, Joana

You can use an addon called as 'Save Page' available here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/save-page/?src=search

It has the option to save the web page as html for offline read.
