Converting WordPress blog page to PDF

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi all,
    I have done this before, but that long ago, i have forgotten.

    I would like to convert the pages to PDF (to submit for assessment), and would like the easiest most pain free way possible that is quick.

    On a photography forum they suggested using CutePDF, however the background is just white and doesn’t show it as the page is displayed.

    Thank you (could you please tell me in basic English and not technical wording….lol)

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  • Hi there – I don’t know that there’s an easy way to convert your entire blog to a PDF, but you can do individual posts and pages by doing the PDF option in your Print menu. In Firefox, it’s File->Print and then there’s a PDF button at the bottom with a ‘Save as PDF’ option.

    There are also some services that will turn your blog into a printable book. http://www.blurb.com/ is one, for example.

    @eurello – I have Firefox and don’t see the ‘Save as PDF’ option – might you have a Browser add on or Browser Plugin? if so, it sounds like a handy one to have

    You can also save the page as html onto your disk – File >> Prints >> Save As – saving as html will save the background colors – then the file is opened with a browser

  • @captnmike – I don’t think so, but it’s sort of hidden – this is where it is for me in the print pop-up:

    Nice tip with the save as HTML! I wouldn’t have thought of that.

    @eurello – way different screen than mine – might have something to do with the printer options –

    You be welcome to the save as HTML – I use that for demos and other times I want to save the content from a page for later use, from time to time.

  • Huh, weird. Maybe also differs on version of Firefox, or Mac/Windows?

    I am on Windows and the upgrade to 26.0 happened this morning

    Strange things I guess
