Safari Reader missing images when printing to PDF

This is due to lazy image loading changes Safari made many months ago.


When using Safari Reader then Print -> Save as PDF, saved PDF files from many websites will be missing many or all of the images after the first page. Users won't notice this if they don't review the saved files, and may realize this months or years later when the original web pages are no longer available.

It's likely that Apple knows about this already, and as with many thousands or tens of thousands of other issues they know about, will continue to ignore them, focusing on new features instead, and will only address them if they gain enough visibility in the press.


If anyone else has the ability to complain about this issue, and other important issues, more loudly, maybe you'll convince Apple to care.


Is it not important to Apple to fix an issue causing customers' "archived files" to be missing important content?

Incredibly frustrating. But less so now I’ve moved to another browser. Does Apple really not care that people are migrating away from Safari? Surely browser use is an important source of advertising revenues?

This issue, as many reported to Apple - has not being addressed - WHY NOT?

Have not used Safari for the past two years, with issues ongoing left unaddressed. On occasion will open to assess any improvements. Disappointed, to say the least. Using alternate browser has been the only solution.


With current state of affairs - the world being 'on fire' - time and attention to user frustrations is LIMITED.

It will be greatly appreciated if Apple addresses these issues we take the time to report - amongst more urgent responsibilities we all now face. Or is that the objective ? To limit our documentation of important content ?
