For a readable personal record, print the DigiLocker page to PDF: in Chrome on a computer, open the page, press Ctrl+P on Windows or Linux or Command+P on Mac, choose Save as PDF, inspect the preview, and save. On Android Chrome, use More > Share > Print, then choose Save as PDF. A saved webpage or screenshot may suit a different purpose, but none of these captures is the DigiLocker-issued document itself.

Save a DigiLocker webpage as a PDF on a computer

  1. Open the DigiLocker page you want to keep in Chrome. If it is an account page, sign in as needed and bring the relevant information into view.
  2. Open the print dialog with Ctrl+P on Windows or Linux, or Command+P on Mac.
  3. In the destination selector, choose Save as PDF.
  4. Check the print preview to see whether the text and page sections you need appear. Choose the available print settings that suit the page, then save the PDF to a location you can find.
  5. Open the saved PDF and verify that it contains the information you intended to record.

Print preview is worth checking: a logged-in page may not lay out on paper exactly as it appears in the browser. If the needed information is missing, the PDF is not a complete record of it.

Save a DigiLocker webpage as a PDF on Android

  1. Open the page in Chrome and wait for the information you need to appear.
  2. Tap More > Share > Print.
  3. In the print interface, select Save as PDF, choose where to save the file, and save it.
  4. Open the PDF and check that the required content is present.

These steps are for Chrome on Android; print controls in other mobile browsers can differ. Chrome’s desktop and Android print workflows are described in its print pages and print settings help.

Choose the right kind of record

Format Best suited to What to keep in mind
PDF from print preview A readable, paginated record that is easy to store, attach, or print. Check the preview and saved file; page layout may not preserve everything visible in the browser.
Saved webpage An offline copy that remains a webpage rather than a printout. On desktop Chrome, use More > More tools > Save page as. The saved result may retain page assets, but it is a different format from a PDF.
Screenshot A quick visual record of what is visible on screen. A normal screenshot captures the visible view, not necessarily the full page. Scrolling-capture features depend on the device; shortcut details are not universal.

Chrome’s desktop help documents both printing and the separate More > More tools > Save page as workflow: Chrome Help. Choose the PDF route for a straightforward personal record; use a saved webpage if you specifically need an offline page copy.

A webpage capture is not the issued DigiLocker document

DigiLocker describes its platform as a secure cloud-based service for storing, sharing, and verifying documents and certificates. A PDF or screenshot of its website records what the page displayed; it should not be described as the certificate fetched or issued through DigiLocker. If you need to retain a certificate, use the document-specific download or fetch option when available and keep that file separately from the webpage capture. The government overview also describes DigiLocker in terms of digital document issuance and verification: Digital India: DigiLocker.

A screenshot or browser-generated PDF is not established by these sources as legally equivalent to an issued electronic document, nor is its acceptance guaranteed. If you are preparing a formal submission to a school, employer, bank, or government office, check the recipient’s requirements and provide the specific document or format it requests.

Or skip the browser setup

ScreenshotNeo can capture a webpage through one GET request and return an image or PDF. For example, this cURL call saves a screenshot as WebP:

curl -G "https://api.screenshotneo.com/v1/shot" -d access_key=YOUR_API_KEY --data-urlencode url=https://www.digilocker.gov.in/ -o shot.webp

See the ScreenshotNeo API documentation for request options. ScreenshotNeo accepts consent banners like a visitor and removes more than 60 known consent platforms, newsletter popups, and chat widgets before capture; each of those steps can be turned off. Bot checks or CAPTCHAs, blank pages, timeouts, failed loads, and cache hits are not billed, and response headers report the page verdict and billing status. It also has an MCP server with screenshot, page-info, and PDF-capture tools for AI agents. The free plan includes 1,000 screenshots a month without a card; paid plans start at $5 for 3,000 shots. A capture is still only a record of the page, not a substitute for an issued certificate. Learn about ScreenshotNeo, or sign up for 1,000 free screenshots a month with no card.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will a DigiLocker webpage PDF be accepted instead of my certificate?

Acceptance depends on the receiving organization and what it specifically requests. Check its requirements; a webpage printout is not the same as the document fetched or issued through DigiLocker.
