I'm trying to create a pdf file of online forum posts. Using the
browser print to pdf option works, but only up to a point in that the
saved pdf file includes all the hidden text in the online original
rather than just the text and images I see without clicking or hovering.
Hope that makes sense.

How can I best save what I see?

Secondly, having hopefully achieved the above, can I combine pdf files?
The forum I want to save consists of 30 threads, each with 3 or 4 pages.
Saving as above means saving one page at a time which is OK, but would
leave me with 100+ pdf files.

Any recommended prog or add on I could use? Ideally open source i.e.
cheap or free?


I've given up with "printing" from web pages and copy/paste into a
Word Processor then print (to pdf/file/printer).

html is no longer html.

I used to copy and past into Word, but now print direct to pdf, or save
the whole page if appropriate as HTML.

For printing and using the web style sheet I use the addon "Print Edit
WE". I have not looked back since. You can also de-select areas you
don't want to output.

I suggest you take a look before giving up.
