Best way to save TFL info

[Dogjaw]

This is computer related, but it's the best way I have found to save all that shooting data on web sites to your computer via PDF file format (Acrobat Reader). It's a free pdf converter called do pdf. It acts as a printer. You click on file, print, and select dopdf as the printer. It asks you what name and where to save the pdf file. You have a picture of the web page on your computer. You can "print" a post on TFL and have a computer copy for future reference. I've been using it for 2 weeks without a hitch.

I can't compare because I've never used "Do PDF", but another free PDF making program that also works as a kind of virtual print is PDFCreator. http://www.pdfforge.org/products/pdfcreator

I couldn't find a license for Do PDF on its web site with casual searching, but PDFCreator is a GPL program (General Public License http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html) which in my book is one of the free-est of free licenses out there. I don't have to fear that it will later become a closed-up and for-pay program or shareware or something. In fact, I probably don't even have to worry about the developer getting bored and dropping the project, because source to build the program is available and someone is likely to adopt it and keep going.

Instead of worring about all of that, why don't you just buy it? I use scansoft pdf professional 4. you can get it here http://www.nuance.com/pdfconverter/professional/ I bought if off of ebay for less than what it is right now. It is easy to use, you can convert PDF's to word docs and word, excel doc to PDF's. Just a suggestion. When you get freebie stuff they tend not to work all too well.
