Create Bookmarks

Create PDF Tags

Stores a structure in the PDF that corresponds to the HTML structure of the web pages and lets you create tagged bookmarks for paragraphs, list elements, and other items that use HTML elements.

Place Headers & Footers On New Pages

Places a header and footer on every page. Headers show the web page’s title; footers show the page’s URL, the page number in the downloaded set, and the date and time of the download.

Save Refresh Commands

Saves a list of all URLs and remembers how they were downloaded in the PDF for refreshing (updating) purposes. Must be selected before you can update a PDF-converted website.

The upper portion of this tab shows options similar to those on a Page Setup or Print dialog box, specifying a selection of page sizes and options for width, height, margin measurements, and page orientation. The right side of the tab area shows a Sample Page that adjusts when you change the measurements or orientation options.

The Scaling portion of the tab area shows these options:

Scale Wide Contents To Fit Page (Windows)/Scale Contents To Fit Page (Mac OS)

Rescales a page’s contents, if necessary, to fit the width of the page. If this option is not selected, the paper size adjusts to fit the page’s contents if necessary.

Switch To Landscape If Scaled Smaller Than

Changes the page orientation to landscape if the new version of a page is less than 70% of the original size. Available only if you selected portrait orientation.
