Why not simply press Ctrl+p and print to PDF?
We have tried it in the past, just doesn't work reliably with different html configurations. Does ctrl+p on this page -> https://jaresume.com/thomas look good for you?

Have you tried using a print media stylesheet? You could hide the navigation, reduce the whitespace, maybe shrink the font size a little bit, and remove link text decoration.

I'm still looking for a service like this, but that creates a nicely tagged PDF and conveys the HTML structure in the PDF tags. Tagged PDFs are a requirement in many processes for accessibility or archival reasons.
