That doesn't look like it will work for me. Based on you suggestion
about Firefox extensions, causes me to wonder if there is an extension
for Firefox that will allow you to script it from the command line. I
know you can specify how big and which page to open to from the command
line, but it would work for me if I could have it open a page and then
save the complete page to a directory. Then I could us a different
unknown app to convert that information to a pdf or something.
