using adobe acrobat (even the trial version) you can save any thread as a .pdf file. very useful for archiving information or if your internet or the board goes down or something.

I prefer Foxit Reader, myself.  http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php

Free, not as clunky as that Adobe junk and comes with a form filler.  Also much smaller and faster.  They have a free add-on which allows you to save files as a PDF.  Also, Open-Office, http://www.openoffice.org/ also free, is a full-featured Office Suite which is compatible with all MS-Office applications, is less than half the install size, and much faster.  Both the Writer and Calc (word and excel, respectively) programs allow exporting the file as a PDF.  Which in turn, you can save HTML files, and then convert them to PDF.  Just an FYI, there ARE free and BETTER programs out there than the Micro$oft and Adobe garbage.
