CNET Editors' review
It's easy enough to print a Web page by simply going to the File menu of your browser and selecting Print, but what you see on your screen is not always what you get on paper. Free HTML to PDF Converter solves this problem by converting Web pages to PDF or image files. It's a simple program, but one that has the potential to be tremendously useful.
The converter's interface is plain and intuitive. Users simply enter the URL of the Web page they want to convert and select whether they want to convert to a PDF with selectable text, a PDF with embedded images, or an image file. There are a variety of other settings that users can tinker with as desired, everything from embedding fonts and including live links to specifying the Web page size and adding PDF metadata. The program also lets users password protect the resulting PDF if desired, and users can choose whether they want the Web page converted as a single page or multiple pages. The program does have an online Help file, but it's definitely written with advanced users in mind. Fortunately, no advanced knowledge is required to take advantage of most of the program's features, which makes Free HTML to PDF Converter a great program for users of all levels.
Free HTML to PDF Converter comes as a ZIP file. It's accessible after extraction with no need for installation. We recommend this program to all users.
