# Save webpages

2. Highlight the text.

3. Drag the text to a document or to the desktop, or choose Edit > Copy, and then paste the text into a document, email, or other place.

Some images on webpages, such as background images, can’t be saved.

Save an entire webpage

1. Open Safari if it is not already open, and then go to the webpage you want to save.

Open Safari

2. Choose File > Save As.

3. From the Format menu, choose either Web Archive or Page Source.

Web Archive: All the graphics are saved and links continue to work as long as the destination webpages are available. Web archives are especially useful for pages that might not be on the web for long, such as receipts.

Page Source: Only the HTML source code is saved. This is useful if you want to use the HTML source in a webpage of your own.

Some webpages may prevent you from saving items on the page.
