How do you convert a html document to a jpeg?

Question

Right now I have an html document that I'm looking to convert to a jpeg file or to a .pdf, though I realize converting to a .pdf probably involves having adobe software (which I don't, unfortunately, except the reader). Anyway, I have a map that I built on mapbuilder.net and I'm trying to get it into either of the above forms. I saved it from the internet and it went into html format. If you have any suggestions or know of a way to convert that type of file, I would really appreciate your info. Thanks.

Thanks for the info so far, but, in response to DB's response, where is the window's info copied to? Nothing seemed to be copied when I hit alt + insert (print screen is listed in blue below insert--maybe this isn't the right key). Thanks in advance.

Answer 2

I don't know of any direct ways to convert an HTML to a jpeg file but you can try the following:

1) If the map you built is savable on its own, that will do the trick.

2) If the map fits in you screen, you can take a screen-shot of your windows environment by clicking on Alt + PrntScrn (Print Screen). This will paste the screen-shot to the clipboard. Then, paste the image in an editor, crop away the excess and save it as a jpeg.

Answer 3

Pull the map up, either at the original web site or using the HTML file you saved if that file displays the map the way you want.

Using the Print Screen feature only copies to the clipboard; you then need to paste it into something.

If you have any sort of image editing program, use that. If not, paste it into a Word document.

Adobe ( https://createpdf.adobe.com ) charges to use its PDF utility, but you can sign up for a free trial that will allow you to create five PDFs, and you can create them from a web page URL, which would work for you.

PDF Online ( http://www.pdfonline.com ) is free, but to use it you will need to save the web page as a Web Archive from Internet Explorer. That will create an .mht file that you can then upload to the PDF Online site for conversion.

Answer 4

After you do what DB said (print screen), you just have to paste it into any graphic editing program like Photoshop or Paint, or even Microsoft word. It'll show up there. Then you can just crop, resize or edit the image as you want because it's already in a jpeg format. :)

It's called OCR. Scan a document, software takes that text it "sees" and converts it to an editable document. It isn't perfect, as OCR software can cost big $. Or look into scanning as a PDF, then convert PDF to Word document.
