<p>I have seen few search results for this, so I thought it would be a good idea to share what I
45
found out. By full-page screenshot I mean a screenshot that shows the page as if the viewport
46
would fit the whole content.
47
</p><p>I thought this would need extensions (of which all are nonfree, and I'm not trusting nonfree
48
extensions for obvious reasons), but it looks like Chromium has had it all this time. It's not
49
as beautiful as some other browsers, but it works.
