Great tips Aibek. I’ve actually used the HTMLtoPDF converter for saving various articles – it makes it easier to view the page in the original format. I then save it in my Safe Files on my webtop for easy access from anywhere.

If you’re a Windows users I’d also recommend something like doPDF. It’s even faster that way.
