Occasionally, I need to save some web page with a lot of pictures as a PDF file. To do this, copying all the content to a word document is a bad idea, because that usually leads to a messy format. Therefore, I often either use browser's built-in PDF printing function, or install and use a standalone virtual printer to generate high-quality PDF document meeting my needs.

BullZip PDF Printer is a free PDF virtual printer from Denmark, allows you to convert any printable documents or images to PDF format. It is applicable to any applications providing the print function. In which you only need to simply choose "BullZip PDF Printer" to replace the traditional physical printer, then the document will be converted and saved as a PDF file format.

Compared with Doro PDF Writer, their printing speed is about the same; and to print the same web page, both text and image quality are approximate. Doro PDF Writer has less adjustable options and capabilities, and their main difference lies in image compression quality. Bullzip PDF Writer's default settings will reduce the image quality, in which case, its PDF quality is slightly inferior to Doro PDF Writer; but if it closed the image quality compression option, then the PDF quality is better than the latter.
