Yes, unfortunately. Adobe Web Capture (the "official" Adobe tool) is needed to traverse Web sites and produce single PDFs. The irony is that there _is_ a Linux tool which will do this traversal, and with far more control over what it picks up, than Web Capture ... but it produces the wrong file format. It's Plucker: http://www.plkr.org/ All joking apart, for grabbing Web pages and reading them offline without having to print out reams of text, Plucker plus a decent handheld is the way to go. Sitescooper does the same thing and could convert to PDF but is famously difficult to set up (haven't tried it): http://www.sitescooper.org/ Alastair
