• Microsoft Excel (desktop)
• Selenium (a plugin that works with Chrome to run scripts) - instructions given on how to download and install

• Does not require membership to the community (but it helps with downloads of community restricted content)
• Will download comments - all threads and all pages
• It works off a free LiveJournal Account,  just set your style to Newspaper Theme
• Embedded images are not downloaded but to capture them you can convert the downloaded html pages to PDFs using a batch HTML to PDF converter
