There's a "Print..." button below the Wordle area, on the left-hand side. Click it. You will be prompted to allow the Wordle "Java applet" to access your printer. Check the checkbox that says "Always permit” and accept the dialog.

On the Mac, you'll have to press the "Print" button again. Mac users can simply "Save as PDF" from their built-in printer dialog.

The PDFs you make in this way are fully scalable. You can insert the Wordle into a PowerPoint slide. They are also suitable for making posters, T-Shirts, and other “what have you’s”.
