[Hidden-tech] Web grabber

[Doug MacMillan]

Ron is correct and full Acrobat on the Mac does have this feature.

File > Create PDF > From Web Page...

Set your desired levels and you end up with a PDF version of the site  
- links working down to your selected level of site detail (you can  
choose the "Get entire site" radio button if that is what you want).

Now, if you are looking for an editable version of your site, that is  
a different story altogether. For that, Dreamweaver has a "Sync"  
feature that allows you to sync from the site to your HDD... assuming  
this is your site and you have FTP access to it.

Best,
Doug MacMillan
