The first time it told me it couldn't save a PDF, one of the options on the notification box was for downloading a PDF-Creator module.
Here's the blurb that accompanied it:
[b]This add-on installs a virtual printer onto your system. You can use this printer to convert any printable documents to PDF files (just open the necessary application, then print to Foxit PDF Printer).
If you don't install this add-on, you won't be able to use the "Convert PDF" feature in Foxit Reader. (Note:This is the beta version of Foxit PDF Creator, some evaluation marks will be added to the created PDF file.)[/b]"
Once this was downloaded and incorporated into Foxit (all automatically in < 90 seconds) it saved the PDF.
I'm interested in your comment of "[i]just have to keep the link in 'favourites' to read it again later.[/i]"
I'm not entirely sure just how much success you would get, even from Adobe, if you tried to make a PDF directly from an online page. Have you tried copying the online text by highlighting it, saving to your hard drive then importing this text file into Foxit for further PDF creation?
As for not stating that it is limited, I would have thought the title of the program "[u]Foxit PDF Reader 2.3 build 2923[/u]" more or less said it all.
Have you clicked the 'Update' option under the 'Help' item on the title bar? You would then be able to download & incorporate the "PDF Editor' of which the blurb says:
[b]This add-on installs an evaluation version of Foxit PDF Editor, which is used to edit page contents of PDF files, including text information, graphics (shapes and lines), and images. If you have already installed Foxit PDF Editor, please don't install this add-on, in this case you should start Foxit PDF Editor directly to change page contents.[/b]
That all seems pretty good value to me since your not paying for it.
As an alternative have you considered installing Open Office - it can open and creates PDF files by DEFAULT (no add-ons necessary) and it's FREE. :)
