    Print from Website, Preserving Links

    Hi. I'm looking for GNU-Linux software that will do the following :

    'Print' a whole lot of pages from a website as a single PDF, while preserving links. It should do this in a manner similar to the 'print pages from ...' -> 'website' option in Adobe Acrobat Pro. So far, I've only seen software that will create PS and PDF documents from ps (*2ps / *2pdf) or any file (a2ps) already on my machine or will print from a website (print to file), but will not preserve links.

    Can anybody recommend something that both generates a single PDF from multiple web pages and preserves links. If you suggest something that is scriptable, please also provide a script (with usage instructions) that does this. Thanks in advance.

    To Where?

    Um. Would you please be so kind as to check your link? It doesn't seem to work.

    Also, I found this site, which partly does what I want, but it doesn't follow links recursively (which Acrobat does). Sorry to re-open this topic here.

    Note that MikeTbob was saying he moved your thread here, to this forum (the Applications Forum), but he didn't provide a link because this is the Applications Forum.
