Save Web Pages as PDF
Internet is vast repository of data. The data are stored in web are as webpages. But to access these data we need working internet connection. If you want access webpages offline, you need to store the webpage in local computer storage. The better way to store webpages is store webpages as PDF document. I would like to provide Python source code of application to save webpages as PDF. If you like the program please share with your friends. Your support is our fuel...
The program is coded in Python and uses PyQt4 toolkit to create GUI. So you need to install PyQt4 to run the application(^).
