How do I Print to PDF on an iPhone?

How do I print a Web page to a PDF document directly through Safari. using an iOS device (iPhone 6s, iOS v. 12.1.4).


CHAT SESSION: I am trying to print a chat made in Safari as a PDF document. Safari is still opened, and the chat is still sitting there. I have tried just copying and pasting it all into an eMail. Unfortunately, this just results in all characters being unorganized and, ultimately, indecipherable. The Chat Session has officially ended, but the screen is still up there. I had to troubleshoot my Mac, yet communicating via chat on an iPhone was the only way to about this communication.


But... Closing Safari would make this chat session just disappear!


PLEASE HELP, BEFORE I LOSE ALL OF THIS!!!

iPhone 6, 12

For Note: PAGES -- Last night, I used pages for this, and it worked as a work-around. But it took up way too much space in my iCloud storage. Through use of Pages, copying and pasting this chat into Pages, allowed this to look like normal and easily decipherable. But, Pages is a large program, and my iCloud Storage is now ALMOST FULL I had to troubleshoot my Mac, and communicating via chat on an iPhone was the only way to about this communication. But, I do not want to use a downloaded app, such as Pages, as too much storage capacity son my iPhone and iCloud are taken up.

Thank you! I had to go to the App Store to download it to my Mac! Opening it on my Mac, both images look the same as on my iPhone. Of course, the chat session is now gone.


Just remember.... that this was a chat session that I had to keep open in Safari on my iPhone; a pain to keep open.


It would have been a charm, had my Mac have been had Office 365 Installed on it.


So...


As for deciphering who said "what" about "what."


In Image ONE and Image TWO, all is Distorted and Assorted, respectively.


Image ONE: 5 Pages --- Not-Organized --- Tough-to-Decipher


Image TWO: 13 Pages --- All Organized --- Easy-to-Decipher

Thanks, but I tried using whatever I could come across. And being so colorful, using those apps even made the output look it all rugged and indecipherable.😔


Yet, I am wondering if changing the resolution on my iPhone would have made all the difference with my usage of those. Of course, though, I do not know. I will consider using them again with a different resolution the next time around.🤔


With Pages.app now deleted, I have retrieved lots of space back. It’s ridiculous how much space that app consumed in iCloud.😮


As for HTML; The pane of each part of the chat had its own colors and lines. So, items were restricted to the frame on the Web page. If a CSS (Commamd Style Sheet) is used, that would have been ignorant on the chatter’s part, as nothing would have been changeable for me.😡


Of course, compiling this screenshot-after-screenshot would had worked, by eassembling it all, But would have been pain-staking, tedious, and time-consuming. In the long ring, it would have been an extremely-large file, indeed.😢


In conclusion, I will consider using those parts of Safari again, but with a different resolution the next time around.
