Apple notes web clipper

I have not been able to find how to clip a web page to Notes. I can, of course, get the URL in a note, but I would really like to have the page as you see it into Notes.

Is there a simple way to do that ?

No. As a link, image, or PDF yes.


If you enable Edit menu : Substitutions : √ Smart links in both Safari and Notes, then you can drag the current URL in the address window into Notes and it will form a more stylized presence as a double-clickable active link that appears as:



If you save a web page as source, then you can import that HTML file into Notes as a separate note, but all you get is an outline of the web page headings without the normal visuals. Think HTML 1.0. And if you save the web page as a .webarchive, you can drag and drop that into a note, with similar appearance to the above, except that the icon is now a .webarchive icon. Double-clicking this webarchive in Notes causes a dialog to inform you that you cannot run it, and you are done.
