Bulk PDF Grabber
Scan any web page for PDF links, pick the ones you want, and download them all in one click — no more clicking "Save As" 15 times in a row.
Features
- Detects PDF links anywhere on the page you're viewing - Tick individual files, or use Select All - Filter the list by filename - Downloads go into a BulkPDFGrabber/ folder inside your normal Downloads folder - Nothing is uploaded anywhere — everything happens locally in your browser
Install
From the Chrome Web Store: *(link goes here once published)*
From a downloaded release (manual install):
1. Download the latest .zip from the Releases page and unzip it. 2. Open chrome://extensions in Chrome. 3. Turn on Developer mode (top right toggle). 4. Click Load unpacked and select the unzipped folder. 5. The extension icon will appear in your toolbar.
How to use
1. Open a page that has PDF links on it. 2. Click the Bulk PDF Grabber icon in your toolbar. 3. Review the list of PDFs it found — everything is selected by default. 4. Uncheck anything you don't want, or use the filter box to narrow the list. 5. Click Download selected. 6. Files will appear in Downloads/BulkPDFGrabber/.
If PDFs load onto the page after you've already opened the popup (e.g. on an infinite-scroll page), click the ⟳ button to rescan.
Permissions & privacy
- Active tab / scripting: only used to look at the page you're currently viewing, only when you open the popup — it doesn't run in the background. - Downloads: used to save the files you select to your computer.
This extension does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. All scanning and downloading happens entirely on your own device.
