RE: OT: saving complete web pages



Jordan, if you open an html file with Word and save as a Word doc, that .doc
file will look pretty much as it did as a .htm file . . . when using the
"web layout" filter (which Word knows to do automatically). Even the
"normal" view shows a mostly webish looking file.

Never having played with Word this way before (I'm not a fan so I rarely use
it) so I might be wrong, there seems to be the same "bad page-break" problem
that html-to-PDF conversion has. You CAN move page-breaks so that breaks
aren't completely hideous, but the result is still kind of ugly.

BUT . . . if you wanted to create a PDF from a web page, AND you were
concerned about the page-breaks, going from Html to Word to PDF would be one
way to go.

Incidentally, I also found some articles that had been HTML but got
"reincarnated" as WORD docs . . .
yet they seem to retain the same graphs / charts / screenshots they had
before, in the same locations.
Not sure how they did this, but it tells me there must be some tools for
doing such things out thre.
