How to Change Web Pages to PDF Files
Due to the popularity of the PDF file format, there are a number of free PDF converters that allow you to convert a web page to a PDF in just a few clicks. Depending on how often you plan to convert web pages and how much control you need over the formatting, you may wish to install a dedicated program, a print driver converter or a plug-in for your favorite web browser, or use a web-based PDF converter.

Tips & Warnings
You can also use web-based converters, such as PDF Download, with most web browsers, if you don't plan to convert many web pages to PDF.
Most browsers allow you to install plug-ins, extensions or add-ons that enhance the abilities of the browser. You can install and use a web-page-to-PDF converter extension. Click on "File," then "Save page as PDF."
Some free converters include ads or other images in your final PDF. Always check the converter's terms prior to using it, or examine the file after performing the conversion.
