There are two known ways of creating print versions of the documentation:
1: -> RTF -> manual cleanup in some wordprocessor -> save as PS/PDF; 2 ->
TeX file -> pdfjadetex.  I don't know what kind of artifacts the version 1
output contains, but over time version 2 got good enough that we started
using it some time ago.  The output isn't "perfect", but I wouldn't worry
about it.  If you're so inclined, you can do manual fixes in the
intermediate TeX file.
