Saving webpage using [Ctrl+S Or File->Save As] always results in a .htm file and a folder which contains images and other related files like css etc. You can also use Web Archive Single File format to save the webpage as a single .mht file but the better option is to save it in PDF format with the help of doPDF. doPDF is a free PDF converter for both personal and commercial use. All you have to do is to click the print button on your bookmarks toolbar and it will automatically save your webpage as PDF file.
