I’m trying to find an extension that will allow me to print pages such as the one I’ve linked. When I attempt to do so, the page goes black and I’m prevented from snagging the content. I’ve also tried screenshot tools, including a few grab & print style extensions. I’ve messed around with the inspector console, tried disabling javascript, more or less all of the things you might futz with to circumvent this. No joy.
Does anyone have a solution or tool they use for this? I’d like to have this on paper so I don’t have to stare at a screen when I’m playing. (I’m a shit jazz musician and need tab. I blame rock and roll.)
Cheers!
Alright, I’ve worked this problem before and this site is specifically designed to make it impossible to do what you’re trying to do.
The next step, I fear, is to load the page with network diagnostics and analyze the traffic with the end of reverse engineering the API. After youve done that, maybe you can download the proprietary file type they use and then try to parse it.
There’s a chance that someone already someone who’s done this. I noticed a few fonts for music notation and a bunch of JavaScript.
From the design elements I see, it’s loading some midi file or something like it, again, probably proprietary. I’m outta options.
Maybe try looking for a website that downloads directly from API or a GitHub that does the same.
