I need to print out a string of Facebook dms. I was able to find a way to copy the file, which results in a .json file. But how can I print it out?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Short of a third party extension/website, I’m not seeing anything. The best I can find is to take a screenshot (or multiple screenshots if it’s longer than a page) and print those out.
Nevermind, I found a way. Go to your privacy settings, search for “download” and click on “download your information”. Go to “customize information” and unselect everything but ‘messages’. Export it, open the file and print what you need printed.
(I think, I’m testing it out, it takes a little while to download)
Can you open the .json file with a text editor like notepad++.
I guess it could contain binary info, but it also could be quite readable and could just need some copy/paste

You could paste the contents of the json file (which is just a structured text format) into any decent AI, and say “give me a human readable, printable version of this”. it will immediately discover it’s json, parse it, and make it something more readable.
Or if you can get it as a single page, a single window or tab, in a web browser, a browser can print that.
