From the example above,depending on what you want to retain (images, or
just text) a couple of possibilities.
If you have a bit of html knowledge to be able to pick out the good stuff
from the junk.
Use your browser to "file>save as".
Then use an html editor such as Amaya http://www.w3.org/Amaya/ to edit
the html file to your liking as far as content.
Open the file in a mozilla-based browser (
Mozilla, http://www.mozilla.org/
Netscape, http://browser.netscape.com/
Firefox http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/
)
Click "File>Print Preview"
Use the sizing option (usually top, center and says "Shrink to Fit")
to change size of total document to suit.
Option 2
Make a new empty text (or word) file. (right-click the desktop and select
New>text document)
From the browser, select the text you want and paste it into the text
file.
Format and edit as you wish from your favorite editor.
Option 3
Copy from browser and paste directly into editor such as Open Office
Writer. http://www.openoffice.org
It seemed to do okay but then wouldn't print properly when I tried it
though. Maybe Abiword might work better. http://www.abiword.org/
Good luck.
