• Do you want to create a new PDF from the web pages or to append the converted pages to an existing PDF?
You can do this in either Acrobat or Internet Explorer PDFMaker, but you choose different buttons or commands to
accomplish these things.
• Do you need to apply advanced conversion settings to the process?
The conversion settings available from within Internet Explorer are limited. Use Acrobat for the conversion process
if you need to select additional settings. When you finish your selections and have converted at least one web page to
PDF from within Acrobat, those settings will apply when you convert web pages from within Internet Explorer, too.
Note: To convert Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) language web pages to PDF on a Roman (Western) system in
Windows, you must have installed the CJK language support files while installing Acrobat. Also, it is preferable to select
an appropriate encoding from the HTML conversion settings.
Convert web pages to PDF in Internet Explorer (Windows)
When you install Acrobat, Internet Explorer (version 6.0 and later) gains an Adobe PDF toolbar. Using the
commands on this toolbar, you can convert the currently displayed web page to PDF in various ways: You can
convert the entire web page or just a selected part of it; you can create a new PDF or append the converted web page
to an existing PDF. The Adobe PDF toolbar menu also contains commands that initiate further actions after
conversion, such as attaching the new PDF to a new email message or printing it.
A menu on the PDF toolbar provides easy conversion and print capabilities.

information in the email message that opens after the conversion is complete.
