The Save to Web Receipts feature has saved my bacon more than once. Of course saving receipts is a good thing for remembering what you've spent, receipts for third-party apps often contain serial numbers for the software. Very helpful when you need to prove yourself to the software provider.

Thank you for the added in depth knowledge. I thought I knew my Mac, but you keep showing me the power built in. Loving my Mac more and more. I do have to use both Windows and Mac and find that I have to buy apps for windows to do what the native Mac OS can do. I really appreciate the power of the Preview app and print to PDF.

Great productivity tips Gary, thanks. I find it better to define a keyboard shortcut Command-P to Save as PDF… for all apps. With that, all I need to do to create a PDF is hit Command-P twice. Really sweet.
