If your test server is live you can always use Acrobat and Create from Web Page

1. Open Adobe Acrobat

2. File –> Create PDF –> From Web Page.

3. Click “Capture Multiple Levels”

4. Choose Get entire site (or whatever levels you want to pdf)

5. You can review the Settings to print landscape if you want

6. Click “Create”.

This is not helpful. When you save as a .pdf you can't format the text for printing in Acrobat. It adds carriage returns. You can't adjust the column size, or wrap around graphics. You can't place the text in InDesign and lay it out for printing. How do you get the InDesign features from a Dreamweaver file?

Save As PDF and use a PDF converter, like our PDF2DTP to open it fully in InDesign to make further edits. I assume you want to edit stuff, which is why you want to get it into InDesign...

Open it in a browser and print it. Why do you think you need InDesign for that?
