・🆓 Free: Up to 30 captures per session, 1x resolution, Auto and single-page layouts.
・⭐ Pro: Up to 200 captures per session, 1.5x–3x resolution, left/right split layout, auto-reverse when the first two pages match.

【✨ What this extension can do】

・Continuous Automatic Page Capture is a Chrome extension that automates multi-page screenshots from the active tab.
・While you run a session, the extension focuses that tab, captures the visible area, sends a key event, waits for your chosen interval, and repeats until the limit or a stop condition is reached.
・Captured images can be trimmed, checked for duplicates, and exported as a single PDF file.

💼 Examples of uses:

・📚 Saving e-books or document viewers that turn pages with arrow keys
・📊 Archiving long slide decks or training pages
・🌐 Keeping a PDF copy of a multi-screen web article or catalog

💡 Other points:

・You can pause and resume a session (both Free and Pro).
・Optional margin trimming removes uniform borders from each shot.
・Duplicate detection can stop capture when consecutive pages look the same.
・Layout modes: Auto (landscape pages may place two captures side by side on one PDF page) or one capture per PDF page.
・Completion toast, notification, and sound can be configured.
・Onboarding and help are available inside the extension package.
・UI supports 59 languages via Chrome i18n.

【🖱️ Basic usage】

1. Open the web page you want to capture.
2. Click the extension icon.
3. Confirm the active tab shown in the popup, then set arrow/scroll key, interval, capture count, and options.
4. Click Start capture.
5. When finished, save the PDF from the popup.

During capture:
・The capture tab is shown in the foreground (required by Chrome screenshot APIs).
・Progress is shown in the popup; you can pause or stop at any time.

【🔒 Privacy and data handling】

・The extension uses the activeTab permission so capture applies only to the tab that was active when you opened the popup, without broad access to all websites.
・If you choose Pro, sign-in and payment use Firebase Authentication and Stripe; license checks use Firebase Functions with your Firebase UID and product ID only.
・See our privacy policy: https://web-services-conexsoft.web.app/page-capture-privacy-policy.html

【⚠️ Limitations and cautions】

・chrome:// pages, the Chrome Web Store, and some restricted URLs cannot be captured.
・Some web apps ignore synthetic keyboard events; test your target site first.
・High-resolution capture (Pro) may conflict if Chrome DevTools is already attached to the same tab.
・Because the capture tab must stay visible, avoid capturing confidential content in shared-screen situations against your organization's rules.
・Respect copyrights and site terms of service when saving pages.

【📝 Summary】

・Continuous Automatic Page Capture helps you save multi-page web content as one PDF by automating screenshots and key presses on the tab you had open when starting.
・Free is enough for short sessions; Pro adds higher limits, resolution, and advanced layout options.
・All core processing stays on your device unless you explicitly use Pro sign-in and billing services.
