Thomas, any comment on this?  Do we need pdf versions of the docs?

We currently have pdf versions of the docs at
ftp://postgresql.org/doc/ but afaik there is no "pdf maintainer" who
is guaranteed to do this when we release new versions, so help with
the next release would be welcome.

Also, I've never gotten real feedback on whether the pdf posted is
good. Apparently it is possible to have font problems and perhaps
differences in (e.g.) the way urls are represented.

sorry, i have not looked at the ftp-server. My versions of the docs have also an index-tree.  I think, this is much better than without index. 

If you want, i can help you to help with the pdf docs.

Bye,

Oliver

Can you send me an example of a pdf doc with this feature? It sounds
like we will want to do this, and if you are willing to continue
supporting it that would be great.

Are you on the hackers or docs lists?
