On the Adobe PDF toolbar, click Select
.
2
As you move the pointer around the web page, a red dotted line indicates areas of the web page that you can select.
Click the areas to convert. Selected areas appear in blue boxes. To deselect an area, click it again.

Convert a linked web page to PDF
❖
In the open web page, right-click the linked text and choose one of the following:
•
To add the linked web page to an existing PDF, choose Append Link Target To Existing PDF. Then locate and select
the existing PDF, and click Save.
•
To convert the linked web page to a new PDF, choose Convert Link Target To Adobe PDF.
Note:
The right-click menu also includes the options Append To Existing PDF and Convert To Adobe PDF. If you select
either of these options, the currently open web page, not the selected link, is converted.
Convert web pages to PDF in Acrobat
Although you can convert an open web page to PDF from Internet Explorer or Firefox, you get additional options
when you run the conversion from Acrobat. For example, you can include an entire website in the PDF or just some
levels of a website.

Convert a web page to PDF
1
Choose File > Create > PDF from Web Page.
2
Enter the complete path to the web page, or click Browse and locate an HTML file.
3
To change the number of levels in the website to convert, expand Capture Multiple Levels. Enter the number of
levels to include, or select Get Entire Site to include all levels from the website.
Note:
Some websites have hundreds or even thousands of pages. Converting a large website can make your system slow
and unresponsive, and can even use up available hard drive space and memory, causing a system crash. It’s a good idea
to begin by downloading one level of pages and then go through them to find particular links to download.
4
If Get Only
N
Level(s) is selected, select one or both of the following options:
Stay On Same Path
Downloads only web pages subordinate to the specified URL.
Stay On Same Server
Downloads only web pages stored on the same server.
5
Click Settings, change the selected options in the Web Page Conversion Settings dialog box as needed, and click OK.
6
Click Create.
Note:
You can view PDF pages while they are downloading; however, you cannot modify a page until the download
process is complete.
