Taking a High-DPI Website Screenshot in Firefox

FROM — https://www.drlinkcheck.com/blog/high-dpi-website-screenshot-firefox

Found an easy way to take high-DPI screenshots via the Firefox Web Console.

   Open the Web Console by pressing Ctrl-Shift-K (Cmd-Option-K on macOS).
   Type the following command: :screenshot --dpr 2
   Press Enter.

This results in a screenshot of the currently visible area being saved to the Downloads folder (with an auto-generated filename in the form of "Screen Shot yyyy-mm-dd at hh.mm.ss.png"). The --dpr 2 argument causes Firefox to use a device-pixel-ratio of 2, capturing the screen at two times the usual resolution.

If you want to take a screenshot of the full page, append --fullpage to the command. Here's the full list of arguments you can use:

   --clipboard Copies the screenshot to the clipboard
   --delay 5 Waits the specified number seconds before taking the screenshot
   --dpr 2 Uses the specified device-to-pixel ratio for the screenshot
   --file Saves the screenshot to a file, even if the --clipboard argument is specified
   --filename screenshot.png Saves the screenshot under the specified filename
   --fullpage Takes a screenshot of the full page, not just the currently visible area
   --selector "#id" Takes a screenshot of the element that matches the specified CSS query selector

Unfortunately, there isn't (yet?) a command for taking a screenshot at a specified window or viewport size. A good workaround is to open the page in Responsive Design Mode in Firefox:

   1. Activate Responsive Design Mode by pressing Ctrl-Shift-M (Cmd-Option-M on macOS).
   2. Adjust the screen size to your liking.
   3. Take a screenshot as described above.

   FULL LINE TO INPUT IN CONSOLE:

   :screenshot --fullpage --dpr 2 --file --filename screenshot.png
