Have you tried the "File>Create>From Web Page" option? This will create a copy of the web site that will allow you to copy from it - as long as the original content is text and not an image.

There may be protections on printing to pdf that can be bypassed with "File>Create>From Web Page" indeed. 

 

A very notorious example is this: http://ref.x86asm.net/coder64.html
