  Pros

  Works well.

  Free!

  Easy to use, but with qualifications.

  Cons

  I should not complain, but I wished it worked a little differently.

  I may have done something wrong, I suppose, but on my Vista system, when I tried to open the downloaded ZIP file, it expanded to a directory/file structure when I thought it would produce an executable installation file. Hmmm ... Seemed odd, so I hunted through the sub-directory it created and double-clicked on the executable I found, "wnvhtml2pdf.exe". This launches the program, not an installer.

  It seems the optional settings you make cannot be saved. In other words, each time you launch the program, the default conversion settings will be set and there seemed to be no way to save your preferences. Also, the expanded view of settings did not consistently display a vertical scroll bar; when a scroll bar actually did appear, the settings at the bottom of the window still could not be changed because of a scrolling problem.

  I wish it offered a chance to name the output file. Instead, the converted file named "RenderedPage.pdf"will be placed in the same directory where the "wnvhtml2pdf.exe" executable is located. After each convert, I gave the output file a name of my choosing and then moved it to another directory. If you don't rename the file, each conversion you perform will overwrite the previous conversion output file (RenderedPage.pdf) without prompting you.

  As I said, the program works very well, but the way it works is a little odd.
