PDF printer has a problem with Safari in "Reader" mode in Windows7

As shown in the image above. When I try to use the PDF printer to print out a web page in Safari "Reader" mode, the lines near the bottom of each page get squeezed like this. There is no problem with XPS printer. I guess this problem is because of some incorrect settings in Safari or the PDF printer?

My system is Windows 7 Pro. I am using Acrobat X Pro. The page I am trying to print is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_band_structure. This problem only happens when the webpage is adjusted into "Reader" mode in Safari.

May be a Safari user can provide some options but see if it works:
Open Acrobat
Click on Create-> Create PDF from Webpage and put the website address and get the PDF created.

If converting this page to PDF was your objective, it produces much better results.

Many thanks for your reply!

I am sorry, I did not make my question clear. I would like to save some web pages only in "Reader" mode, because in this mode all the advertisements are filtered out and the pages look much nicer than the origional layout.
I first let Safari to active "Reader" by clicking "Reader" button.

Then I click "Print" button and select Adobe PDF as the printer.

The problem is the PDF file has something wrong (shown above), and I would like to know how to avoid this problem.
