Mozilla Print allows PDF generation - but technology allows photos to be cut in half

We may be used to PDF, but when I download from say, spoonflower, it has lots of pics in it (my own account I mean).   So pics should be automatically given the right to "Not" be cut up and put on 2 different pages.  I'm sick of seeing this happen, and Mozilla's product doesn't differentiate and I think, in this epoch of AI it should.

A pdf option in your browser that automatically preserves a photo in it's original state, now that would be something, don't you think.?   Then, when you have time, and can edit it, you can at least save time on having to piece it together again all on one page.   Nuff said.

NB:   Let me just add, that a separate issue was, that the photos in the PDF were not very good quality, almost fuzzy,  compared to the screen view live.  Not sure why that was happening either.

You could report it as a possible bug at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi/. If you do, please post the link to it here.

Ok, thanks siffemcon.

I completely get what you’re saying here. It’s really frustrating when you download or save a PDF that has lots of photos and the browser just slices them between two pages without thinking about the layout. Images should stay whole by default, especially when they are personal photos or design previews. Having to manually fix or rearrange them later wastes time and breaks the flow of your work. With how advanced browsers are now, this feels like a basic feature that should already exist.

Small usability problems like this often get overlooked, but they actually affect everyday users the most. Things like smart page detection, automatic image protection, and cleaner PDF exports would make a huge difference. I’ve seen similar practical tech discussions and explanations on different blogs that focus on real-world problems like this, and you can Learn more about Cliff Mass Blog Site to explore thoughtful posts that break down digital and technical topics in a simple, helpful way.

At the end of the day, saving a file should be quick and reliable, not something that creates extra editing work. A browser that keeps photos in their original shape and size would feel much more modern and user-friendly. Hopefully future updates bring smarter PDF handling so people can focus on their content instead of constantly fixing formatting issues.
