For Chrome there are some browser addon's available for taking 'full page screenshots' - if a screenshot image file met your requirements maybe that's something useful?

Er, yes, technically that's true, but doesn't solve anything because that's not my problem. I'm able to create PDFs quite easily - they're just not usable. The output in CSS "print" mode is unusable and unreadable even with the on-screen data in front of me.
The problem is particularly bad when viewing Port details, which is usually what I want to send off.
What I see on screen: https://merlin365-my.sharepoint.com/:i:/g/personal/athompson_merlin_mb_ca/Ea...
What I get as a PDF: https://merlin365-my.sharepoint.com/:b:/g/personal/athompson_merlin_mb_ca/EW...
As you can see, these are not... quite... the same.
I have run into this before, and it's usually a CSS problem. If I'm using a specific browser (Chrome, i think) I can override and tell the CSS engine that I'm still looking at a screen, even when I'm printing, and then I get high-fidelity output that matches the on-screen view. Ah, found it: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9540990/using-chromes-element-inspector-...
...but that is a giant PITA. Is Observium's CSS really that bad for "print" media type, or have we done something wrong in our installation?

You can print to a PDF. It's built into Mac and Windows you can add a pdf "printer" (e.g. CutePDF)

In talking to my external partners, I often need to document the current state of a port. Observium's Ports screen is perfect for the task... except that there's no way to save it, print it, turn it into a PDF, etc.
I don't want to grant the receiving person the ability to log into my Observium instance, I just want to send them the data neatly arrayed.
Does anyone have a way to accomplish this with Observium? Right now I'm taking screenshots, cropping them, pasting them together, etc. which is a PITA.
Advice appreciated,
