Assuming you're using the "new" (yuk) interface, go to:<br /><br />Overview ><br />Settings ><br />Other ><br />Blog Tools > Export Blog<br /><br />you can then save an HTML file with all your posts. It does not save your pictures. Many people rely on Picasa for their picture storage, I keep a copy of everything on my hard drive and have four different external backup drives (told you I was neurotic).<br /><br />I'm just about to try www.blog2print.com. You can pay for a PDF of your blog which does include images. A friend has used this and said it was very good but I've not purchased from them yet. <br /><br />Hope this helps.BilboWagginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06913801147278606148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-67468055674096468782012-02-14T10:27:56.817+00:002012-02-14T10:27:56.817+00:00I'm a bit neurotic about backing up, Malar - ...I'm a bit neurotic about backing up, Malar - pity you can't back up the blog too - maybe you can and I've not found the way yet!Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-39821844111645092362012-02-14T10:26:58.875+00:002012-02-14T10:26:58.875+00:00It is Diana even when gardening!It is Diana even when gardening!Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-30423815401922504602012-02-14T08:28:25.872+00:002012-02-14T08:28:25.872+00:00Nice plan to have a back up.

We just pay for the server space etc.<br /><br />The difference is that we have a copy of the website on our computer and backed up on a portable hard disk too. The last times we worked directly on the Internet so we didn't have a copy independent of that.<br /><br />The systems used couldn't transfer pages from one place to another as they had their own file types. Now we have constructed our websites using a piece of software and work on our systems. Once the pages are created they are then uploaded.<br /><br />If we want to change our hosting - should our hosts fold up or something similar we can upload the website as it stands from our computers rather than having to redo it all again. If needs be we could also download it from the host say if for some reason we lost our two copies.Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-57462113174840158612012-02-11T16:42:38.707+00:002012-02-11T16:42:38.707+00:00Sue, I hope you have a good backup arrangement and...Sue, I hope you have a good backup arrangement and a "Disaster Recovery Plan", because although you now have more independence you also have more responsibilities, and if something goes wrong with your computer you could be in trouble.
