As far as I know, UR indeed ‘reloads’ the whole page, for the simple reason that the only information it gets from the browser is the address. Contrast this with Surfulater that gets all the page content from the browser itself.
There may be an alternative, though I personally have not tried it; i.e. to use UR itself as the internet browser. In that case, when one wants to capture a page it would be already loaded in UR. I am unaware of the practicalities of such an approach, though I’d say that a browser provides an environment optimised for, well, browsing, whereas UR’s browser window does not.
That’s why I appreciate Surfulater’s (and other similar products) browser integration, which provides a seamless way to focus on the browsing experience, while clipping all the information one considers useful along the way.

Debenu PDF Maximus for free today. I got it last time and I found it an overkill for my needs, but for 100% off I don’t mind keeping it in the bag, just in case…
