how to create a clean PDF from a website

Recommended Posts

There are more than one way to convert a website to a PDF but normal you don't get only what you want. 

 

If you have Acrobat XI / DC installed and use Firefox I show you another and better way. 

 

this is a big part of a website

and if you have Nuke Anything installed

you can select what you want

and the resulting PDF looks lite this one

without any unwonted nonsense and a useful side effect is that all links from the site are working in the PDF file.

Without jumping through a bunch of hoops, I just highlight the data I want, copy and paste it into word and save it as a docx or pdf.  I don't get the crap on the side, which are usually ads, and all the embedded links still work.  I don't need adobe and/or a 3d party program and it is a lot easier to highlight, copy, paste, and save as.

I know and used this way in the Firefox x64 periode where the Acrobat plugin was not present but

  1. you dont have a link to the source site (must be inserted by hand)
  2. pictures not always can be copyd on this way, on some pages you must save the pic and insert it to your word document

but I would not install Acrobat only for that if there is no other reason to have / use it. Nobody said that my way is the only / best way
