Google Chrome extension can't convert webpage to PDF

Adobe Acrobat extension is the most useless extension I have ever seen. It can't convert a bloody webpage. What a shame. What a shame! Let's look into its supposed capabilities:

 

There is no "Convert webpage to PDF" option. But it must be as you can see this extension's info page.

 

As you notice it's not true. Who needs an extension to convert other stuff to PDF? It's not clever. It's useless. Have they ever thought for a second before publishing? No.

I think it's CRIME not to have this option. Now I have to deal with screenshots instead of single button. You call yourselves as "coders" but lie. You lie about a non-working feature.

 

I use Win10, I have Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Version 2020.013.20074. 

 

I really can't cool down.

It doesn't say that. It says:

Adobe Acrobat DC/Adobe Acrobat XI (11.0.09 or higher) must be installed on your machine

FWIW, although I have Acrobat Pro DC, I never use it for converting web pages to PDFs. I much prefer using "Print Friendly," as I find it not only more convenient but I also find that since I can edit out items on the web page that I do not need, I prefer the results.

The extension is not available with Acrobat Reader. You must install Adobe Acrobat.

Thank you for your quick response. The Overview says: 
"Adobe Acrobat DC (Version 15 or higher) or Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (Version 17 or higher) must be installed on your machine"

 Thus I thought it is OK with Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
