Pagespeed images prevent a saved page from displaying correctly. Most images don't display.

With PAGESPEED images, image files are not loaded as files, but are put inline as a collection of data.   This may make the website after (if extra length of the file loads faster than one or more files from the host's storage).

Anyone who saves the page, for later, doesn't get the full page - pictures are missing.

I like people to download my long files, for reading later.  Should I get my web host to no longer convert images to 'pagespeed' format?
And if so, how?  They don't even seem to understand the problem.

The "inline_images" filter applies only to images below a configurable threshold size, 3k by default.  I think saving the web page should work fine with that.  Not sure why they were missing for you.

You can also right-click "save image as..." on inlined images.  However, they will be downloaded in whatever format they were transcoded to, which might be webp.

You can disable specific features of mod_pagespeed fairly easily.  For those two:
  ModPagespeedDisableFilters inline_images
  ModPagespeedDisableFilters convert_jpeg_to_webp
