Hey @bislara , so i have made s similar project and i can get the exact article and save it as a pdf.

Oh, that's great. Go ahead with that. If possible try to scrap the whole HTML as well.

The script will save the whole project as a pdf not a html file. It gets all the written content and not the images. ill make a pr so you get an idea of how it works.

Hey @bislara I have made a project that saves medium articles into a text file. Will such a script be suitable for this particular issue?

@namanshah01 Let's keep this issue separate and add your project in another issue. So, please go ahead on creating an issue and further create a PR. Waiting to see some awesome work. 🚀
