How to Export as PDF from Safari's Reader View retaining font and images?

Having a web page in Reader View, doing an Export as PDF… often strips out images displayed in Reader View and changes the typeface to the system default rather than the typeface I selected for the Reader View. How can I get the saved PDF to look like the displayed Reader View? I can export the un-cleaned regular page view, but then all the extraneous material is included in the PDF.

You might try printing and selecting the option to print to pdf file to see if that pdf file looks more correct. Some of what you are encountering is website dependent, as some web sites seem to exclude some or sometimes all images when Export as PDF is chosen. Printing to pdf SOMETIMES works better. Sometimes also, stubborn web sites will work better for this when using Firefox or Chrome, which you can also try.
