The core of a web page is a file writtenin Hypertext Markup Language (HTML). Typically, the HTML file includesassociations with other files that either appear on the web pageor govern how it looks or works.

When you convert a web page to PDF, the HTML file and all associatedfiles—such as JPEG images, Adobe FLA files,cascading style sheets, text files, image maps, and forms—are includedin the conversion process.

The resulting PDF behaves much like the original web page. Forexample, the images, links, image maps, and most media files appearand function normally within the PDF. (Animated GIF files appearas still images, showing the last frame of the animation.)

Also, the PDF functions like any other PDF. For example, youcan navigate through the file by scrolling or using bookmarks; userscan add comments to it; you can add security, form fields, and otherfeatures that enhance it.

In preparing to convert web pages to PDF, consider the followingfactors, which affect how you approach the conversion process:

  • How much do you want to convert?

    If you want to convertonly selected areas of the currently open web page, use PDFMakerfrom within Internet Explorer. If you wantto convert several levels or all of a multipage website to PDF,work within Acrobat.

  • Do you want to create a new PDF from the web pages or toappend the converted pages to an existing PDF?

    You can doboth in either Acrobat or Internet Explorer,but you choose different buttons or commands to accomplish thesethings.

Note:

To convert Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) languageweb pages to PDF on a Roman (Western) system in Windows, you musthave installed the CJK language support files while installing Acrobat.Also, it is preferable to select an appropriate encoding from theHTML conversion settings.

Convert web pages to PDF in InternetExplorer, Google Chrome, and Firefox (Windows)

Acrobat installs an Adobe PDF toolbar in Internet Explorer (version 8.0 or later), Google Chrome, and Firefox. Using the commands on this toolbar, you can convert the currently displayed web page to PDF in various ways. For example, you can convert the entire web page or selected areas of it. Or, you can create a PDF or append the converted web page to an existing PDF. The toolbar has additional commands that initiate further actions after conversion, such as attaching the new PDF to a new email message or printing it.
