What a mess up.

In your shoes (provided I liked the job, got paid well, and got to poke
fun at the decision-maker in charge ;?)) I would make a copy of the
site. In the copy, I would change page sizes to 8x10 inches. I would
then reformat the site such that the WYSIWYG HTML layout for each page
was in a separate HTML file, you might want to name them page1.htm, etc.

Otherwise, open the mess in a word processor, strip out the HTML code,
and reformat.

Happy trails;?))

P.S. I'd have made it PDF ;?0.
