(Archived) Web Clipper does not preserve layout

I'm trying to use evernote but the web clipper fails miserably when it comes to clipping pages that are a little more than just a simple article. For example this page: http://www.systembolaget.se/5042

Try to clip the part that the describes the wine and the result really looks nothing like what's on the page. Copy and paste into evernote is a little better but it messes up the typography which lead to some layout quirks.

What Web Clipper are you using? ( Safari, Firefox, IE or Chrome ), based on my tests of this URL you are probably using Firefox.

There are a few settings that affects the preservation of styling for a clip in Firefox:

- Chose the 'Preserve all styles' setting or the equivalent in Swedish for best results.

- Use 'Send clips to web'

Our next release of Firefox native clipping will have improved style preservation.

I am using the Safari bookmarklet. The Beta extension on this forum seem to have no such option.

I have the same problem. I tried the new clipper, and indeed, I have to admit it's much better now.

I'd still like the clip-as-PDF option that used to be available (on Mac OS, anyway), but this is a big improvement.
