Off Topic (Slightly) but will benefit all DVX users converning .pdf creation

I recently ran into this link:

http://www.adamwilt.com/24p/index.html


Great info, great stuff. Is there any way anyone knows of turning that web page into a .pdf? I had a friend who had as a plug in a virtual printer set up in his printers and when he chose it and hit "Print", a perfect .pdf was created. Now this is a great article, but it would be even better is it were a .pdf and I could take around with me and access it at will with no Internet connection.

I don't want to imply piracy or anything of that sort, since the names and authors are al still intact. I would simply like to take that great site, will all the pics and hyperlinks available and turn into something a little more mobile.

Any help would be appreciated. If this is not the right forum, Mods please move it.

Thanks again
 
There are also places on the web that will do it. Adobe, almost sure, but others, too.

Of course, you could also buy Acrobat pro...always a nice thing to have for your own purposes.

Hmmm...maybe email Adam and suggest he do it himself.

Kept evertyng but the Pictures. Thanks though

This is what I do, it is not the most pretty PDF, but it works. You need OS X- open the page in Safari (Although it would probably work in IE) - go FILE - PRINT - on the bottom of the print window click - SAVE AS PDF . It will convert it to a PDF for you. It is not a very flexible PDF, but a PDF none the less.
 
If your goal is to have a single, portable file to consult off line you don't necessarily need a pdf. Go File-->Save as-->Web archive, single file (*.mht) and you'll get a single archive which also include all images and graphic contents and can be opened with IE on either the Pc or the Mac.
