    Adobe Acrobat: Save web page to .pdf
    I've got Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0. Saving a webpage as pdf:
    2006 Program Guide

    I want to squish it to one page (.pdf).

    I want to try it both landscape and portrait to see if either is readable...

    How do I do this?

    Thanks!

    Do you not have a 'percentage of original size' option available to you when converting?

    No... not that I'm finding...

    I do get the option to "scale wide contents to fit page" but I'm not finding the "squish all contents to one page" option :)

    I know it can be done somehow because they did it with the 2006 schedule (here).

    Here's the options dialog I have:

    That page is just too long to fit onto one 8.5 x 11 page. I have been using the Acrobat 8 Trial for some emergency conversion to PDF here and it works great. I would make a copy of the web page first and remove the nav bar at the top.

    But that won't remove enough of it that it ends up on one page.

    Any clues on how they did it with the 2006 schedule?

    Hmmm... I'll try screen-shotting it to .jpg, reduce it with Photoshop, then save to pdf...

    The 2006 schedule is barely readable, that's why I aiming for you to do it in 2 pages.

    Yeah... it's a bummer, but they want something for the back of a flyer... even if it's barely readable.

    With that old one they were blowing it up a bit with their copier and using it on some printed things...

    Well I've played hookie all day on this one. The best I could get in a one page pdf exactly like the web page is this.

    I spent the afternoon doing a text only version in Excel, which I'll save to pdf. Boy was THAT a pain in the rump!

    Thanks for your help Need.
