Possible to export Pocket article from url into PDF?

I’m trying to create a simple workflow which converts an article from Pocket into a PDF (using PDF.co) and then save in Google Drive.

The problem I’m having is there are rendering inconsistencies from article to article. I understand this is because the Zap is setup to just pass along the article URL. Is there anyway to export the actual minimized formatting which Pocket creates from the URL? This would I would have a consistent layout and font size for every article which is exported.

Thanks for any help or guidance, I signed up for Zapier basically just to get the Pocket PDF export working.

@cmoseley Sadly I don’t think this is possible, as the version Pocket renders lives entirely inside their app - you can’t send that version to PDF.co, only the original article.
