Show Notes
I am an avid lover of printing and saving documents to PDF. A nice feature built right into the Macintosh operating system is the ability to save to PDF thanks to a open source project called CUPS(Common UNIX Printing System), something Windows really needs to work on.
When printing or saving documents from a website I dont like all the needless junk on the page, for example ads, sidebars or the LONG comments. one of my favorite websites PrintWhatYouLike.com allows you to take all the needless junk within a website completely out of the page

Now to go to PrintWhatYouLike.com the link will be the show notes
Once you’re there you will see an address bar that you can paste the URL into, once pasted click start and you will be redirected to a page where you can edit everything within the page.
Go ahead click on anything, if you do the selection will highlight in yellow, this website has a ton of features and you can click anything, and delete it, remove the background image, remove all images, you can even select a certain text or image and expand just that selected part of the website you want to print. PrintWhatYouLike.com also allows you to save as a PDF or HTML file although the HTML file to include the images if you have any on the website which are trying to save. one really sweet feature on PrintWhatYouLike.com is it allows you to add other pages! for example if you have a website that you want to print or save to a PDF but you don’t want to go through all the hassle of printing each individual page PrintWhatYouLike.com allows you to add Extra pages, go ahead and click the add page in the upper left-hand corner of the page and paste the URL of the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth page and click add.
What’s also neat about this feature is if you edited the first page and then add an additional page it formats the page for you, no more editing all the other pages
One smart little bugger

and that going to do it for this episode of Mac Tip Podcast I hope you enjoyed it
