By example :

In Ali Express I can see some lists, but I don't know how to print to a pdf these lists.

Can I have software for doing this. Not like HTTrack, only certain data to print. To control shopping in several webs.

Best Regards

there are virtual pdf printers.. you install them and then from any app that can normally print something to a printer you can print it to pdf file instead.
or you could take a screenshot and save it in pdf format.

does that answer your question?

"a web"  :huh:
I bet when Cheetahs race and one of them cheats, the other one goes "Man, you're such a Cheetah!" and they laugh & eat a zebra or whatever.

Not entirely, but surely is the way. I have pdf virtual printer and using Fireshot.
I suppose it was possible a script or something to obtain rapports from a website. ....

You have to include the tracking of your shopping and then tell you of all the updates. You can use an alias to know what is inside the parcel...
