Hey, Keith, you've lost the beginning of this thread! <grin>
The original poster's question included this statement:
"I know that Adobe Acrobat can pull a whole web site into a PDF file, but I'm
looking for one that can pull a whole site into HTML files."

(And explained why he needed the HTML files.)

For those for whom a PDF *is* a relevant solution:
Be warned that it only works well for some sites. For others (when CSS positioning has been used extensively) the result can be a bit of a mess. The information is there, but the page layout isn't quite as it appears online. Of course, this may or may not matter, depending on the content and the purpose for which the PDF has been created.

Regards, Jean
