My goal here is mostly to read articles, but sometimes I save the website for archive purposes. Which one do you think I should choose?(Sorry for my bad English I am not a native speaker)
Use “Reader” mode in the browser, then print that to PDF.
Saving the website will be smaller so if you’re doing a lot of archiving that’ll save space. Also probably easier to find HTML renderers on weird platforms than PDF. Full disclosure I hate Adobe so I’m not unbiased, but HTML still has advantages.
Well thank you for answering my question but I think there is a thing called odt if Adobe is problem for you I think you can convert your pdf’s into odt but overall thank you
Yeah I have lots of options for my own use, but I hate adobe because they’ve infected every workforce I’ve been anywhere near with the idea that PDFs are gods will. And I’m commonly the one that has to interpret gods will for the congregation.
Valid reason not supporting monopoly
If I only plan to read or view the file myself, I save PDF. If I need formated text extraction, save the page.
I appreciate for your help
I’d say html. Websites don’t translate well to pdf and and pdf is a hellish format that cannot be modified after the fact
If you just want to save the text to read later, go with HTML.
If you want to archive it with graphical elements and embedded images, PDF is the better choice.
