I don't know if this is feasible or not, but several of the other phpBB forums I visit regularly include a "print this thread" button which puts up a whole topic in a single page with no background or extra graphics, making it very easy to print a topic or save it to disk for offline reference.
There have been a ton of great threads that I've wanted to save for reference, but stitching together 5 or 10 pages of posts for each thread and then trying to remove all the avatar and .sig graphics is pretty tedious work.
It appears all you have to do is add a small mod to the forum software, which can be gotten from:
