[OT] Conversion of websites to PDF?

Hi all-

A bit off-topic, but I thought I’d ask here.

I have a number of “off-line” websites captured with wget, and they don’t correctly display in DTPO, largely because the links between files and images are broken.

I’d really like to convert these to PDF format, but I’m always annoyed by where various conversion utilities break on pages. It cuts through illustrations and leaves really ugly pagination.

Does anyone know of a product that treats each web page as a single page? That is, instead of breaking a page into, say, 7 8.5x11" chunks, it preserves the one? Also preserving backgrounds, etc?

Thanks! Charles

You should have a look the “create PDF document from” AppleScript command of the latest public beta :wink: For example…


tell application id "com.devon-technologies.thinkpro2" to create PDF document from "http://www.apple.com/hotnews/" without pagination

Oh, Bravo!! Fantastic!

Many thanks for all your hard work on DTPO.

Best, Charles
