I strongly recommend against selecting this, since it can take an amazingly long time. As it says, this option converts the entire site to PDF.

The larger the number of levels you specify, the exponentially longer the conversion will take. A value of 3 additionally captures pages linked to by those pages, and so forth.

A value of 2 says to get that Web page and any pages linked to by that page. A value of 1 says to get only the Web page whose address you have specified. Here you specify the extent to which Acrobat should grab Web pages that are the target of links on your selected Web page. At the extreme, they keep you from inadvertently trying to convert the entire World Wide Web into a single (large!) PDF file. The controls in the Create PDF from Web Page dialog box ( Figure 4.12) have the critical purpose of limiting the scope of your Web capture.
