A Better Mouse Trap.....PDF Web Converter


As you explore the Internet you are bound to find pages, articles or tutorials you would like to keep for handy reference.  However, within the limited space of an RV, there is no room for a boxful of papers.  And why cut down trees when you can save it a better way?  This Print Friendly PDF Converter at  http://www.printfriendly.com/ is the best I have seen and used.  You create a PDF of the page you have open with a minimum of keystrokes when you have the bookmarklet available on your  Favorites bar.   Follow the instructions at the bottom of the page to put the button on whichever browser you are using.  You are not downloading any software to your computer.  All of the PDF creation takes place online.  Once it is created, you download the PDF to your computer.  One other good feature is that it downloads only the main text and pictures, not the ads and the junk. You can use this to print web pages without the junk as well.
If you have a blog or website you can use the  web button which will allow your text to be downloaded as a PDF by your visitors. As with anything you download or use from the Internet, I encourage you to read the Privacy notice to avoid possible problems with information collected with your use.
