Save certain parts of a web page as pdf?

What are you using to convert the page to a PDF? If that process uses the "print" output of the page to generate the PDF then there is a simple solution. CSS allows you to specify different styles for elements based upon the "media". I have used this may times in the past to have elements such as the navigation section not display in the printed output (the navigation links have no purpose in a printed output).

 

For any elements that you do not want in the printed output, give them a display property of none for the "print" media. Here is an old post where I provided some example code: http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/javascript-help/print-function!/msg1093659/#msg1093659
