Just use a web-based tool like Web2PDF, plug the web page’s address in, and it will create a PDF file for you. If you’re using a computer without a PDF printer and you just want to print a web page to a PDF file you can take with you, you don’t need to mess around with any conversion process. This will create a PDF file with the same contents as your XPS file. Open the XPS file in Microsoft’s XPS Viewer, click File -> Print, and print the XPS file to your virtual PDF printer.
Perhaps you’re using a computer that you can’t install any software on, but you want to print to PDF from Internet Explorer or another program without integrated PDF support. To print to PDF from anywhere, install a PDF printer. You can generally create a PDF file from the print dialog or with an “Export to PDF” or “Save to PDF” option if the program supports it. LibreOffice: Open the File menu and select Export as PDF.Microsoft Office: Open the menu, select Export, and select Create PDF/XPS Document.Click the Change button under Destination and select Save as PDF. Google Chrome: Click the menu and and click Print.
In many programs, you can print to PDF without installing a PDF printer at all.
Some applications have added their own PDF-export support because Windows doesn’t have it natively. On Windows 8, PDF printers you install will appear both in the classic desktop Print dialog and the Modern printer list. Just be sure to uncheck the terrible Ask Toolbar and other bloatware during installation. Just download it, run the installer, and you’re done. You can choose from a variety of free PDF printers available online, but we’ve had good luck with the free CutePDF Writer (Download from Ninite).
