Hi all,
I need some more geek help.
There is a web based book that I need to download and convert to pdf or doc or open doc format so I can read it off-line and print it. They have a downloadable copy as a windows help file but I cannot seem to read it at all.
I need to start with this page: http://book.mql4.com/
and add this page: http://book.mql4.com/overview
and add this page: http://book.mql4.com/content
and all the pages that are the main body of the book linked to from the previous page, but not all the ancillary pages referenced at the bottom of every page, etc.
Can someone tell me how to do this in a relatively painless fashion. Copying the text from the browser to a doc file is definitely NOT painless.
I prefer something that is cross platform, or something which runs as an android program, or something which is a Firefox plugin. It would be preferable if all the content is stored in one pdf or doc file but if each web page is a doc or pdf file, that would be better than nothing.
As always, any help is appreciated.
Sincerely,
Ron
