Creating PDF from HTML, how to chage output to continuous vs. pages.

I'm using Acrobat DC Pro on Windows 7.  When I convert HTML files to PDF, data is lost when the page break is in a table row.  The HTML files are table intensive.  I was hoping to find out how to change settings so that the output PDF would be continuous vs. pages, or shrink to fit on page vs. fit to width.  Any ideas?

There is no such feature in terms of creating one big honk'in variable length single page in lieu of fixed sized pages. The closest you can get to that would be to create a very “long” custom page size that you know the entire web page contents will fit into and then when you are done creating that monstrous page, use the page crop tool in Acrobat to cut off the unnecessary white space at the end of the page.

I haven't tried this, but it should work. Let us know if you try it and whether that helps meet your needs.
