Quite some time now, I've been using this piece of utility. for Long making a PDF document has been a tussle, and there had been so many myths in the making. But PrimoPDF amazes us by enabling people do it very impressively.
You might wonder, why print it, save it as PDF? when you can just save the HTML page? Well, yes there are other ways you can keep your pages saved, like HTML, DOC, TXT(text), or even as a "Complete Web Page" - The .MHT extension from Microsoft.
You can save your webpage as a compiled package, with the images and text saved into 1 single file, by using the MHT file extension in Internet Explorer.
But this is only applicable if you are a Internet Explorer user, but what about all those Firefox users? Well the answer is - suffer with your scattered HTML pages, and images under folders! or get PrimoPDF or the likes of thee..
PrimoPDF is a File Printer Driver! A print to file means, it does not print to a paper, but it prints to a file. So all your webpage attribute stays intact inside the resultant PDF. There are other utilities like this, each of them have their own pros and cons. Of the ones I have used, this is my favorite, and it is hassle less. It prints in a jiff, its fast and easy, does not leave out the margins.
Some uses that I found great are, to print the Air Ticket you just had booked on your favorite ticketing website. You can print it with the same alignment to a PDF file, and use it later to print on paper (in some office atmosphere you are not allowed to print on paper - this will come in handy). Save the PDF and keep a copy on your mail, so that you can print it later.
Keep some game results that are only visible on the screen and cannot be saved in any other format (like flash, java applet screen etc.) to boast to your friends. If you are checking the spped of your system with some Java Applet tool, and you want to keep a copy of the same, you can use this print to file utility.
Sometimes you check the website stats on screen in Google Analytics, but you cannot save them as it is seen on to a file. This utility will be a great way to save the page in just a click. Your imagination is the limit, as long as you have the necessity coming you will keep finding new ways.
