1. Make a suggestion to the site owners/authors, that it would
   be nice if these were in pdf format.  They may appreciate the
   helpful suggestion.

2. I think if you are going to use them for distribution you might
   need the author's permissions. Don't know for sure, sites vary.

3. If you have a PDF printer installed (Linux CUPS pdf driver) you
   could use your browser's File -> Print. 

4. If you are using FF, there are addons that selectively remove
   elements. Other browsers might have something similar.

1. If you are wanting to do it from the command line you'll have to
   dump the page | extract what you want | convert it

If on linux, and you are looking for a tool to get a job done, often
this will start the little grey cells firing: 

man -k xxxx
where 'xxx' is something you need (man -k pdf)
