Is there anyway to capture a web page into a PDF through Firefox 1.5 like the way you can through Internet Explorer using Acrobat 7?

Thanks!

Nice thought, but that is only Save As PDF, as compared to show As PDF within the browser. If not mistaken, I believe that the original post wants to Save a Hmtl page directy to PDF is the question in which a simple extension cannot do. That is what Adobe Acrobat Pro can do. I use PDFCreator, but seems incapable of doings this, and it is 20 MBs in size.. :}

Hi Actually very simple just download and install the extension IE tab view the page in an IE tab then right click should give you the Adobe options.
Not sure if it works tho never actually used, just notice the option is there.
If doesn't work maybe send request to extension maker to look into it.

There is a greate award winner Firefox Extension 'ScrapBook'. Which is a webpage/website copier. What makes it diffrent it from such software. It is very fast, very accurate, uses filters, have basic webpage editing features, small download size, export saved pages and may more features.

This is one of top/popular downloads on Mozilla update site.

Mozilla Update :: ScrapBook
ScrapBook HomePage

There is PDF manual available on homepage.

Now copy your webpage using this extension (and may export to desktop for convinience). Now use any PDF creator software to create PDF file of it. There are a no of free/paid S/W. Since you need to convert a single webpage to PDF you do'nt need to buy so expensive Acrobat Pro. Most of the free S/W do'nt retain your hyperlinks in webpages to PDF.

There is a S/W which I recommed. It retains hyperlinks.
The program supports command line, batch conversion, PDF security options, password protection mode (using 40-bit and 128-bit encryption keys), fonts embedding, and different compression modes.

Document2PDF Pilot

I think it is the best option you have!
