[TYPO3-doc] thinking about PDFs ...

Hi folks,

thanks to Xavier rendering ReST -> LaTeX -> PDF now generally
works. If we turn that on for Typoscript Reference 6.1 here's what
we get:
http://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/TyposcriptReference/_pdf/

There seem to be a lot of LaTeX warnings and the result isn't
really nice looking yet. I'm afraid there is still a lot that
needs to be done to make LaTeX->PDFs really enjoyable.


On the other hand: 

A tool like the Acrobat Pro v9 Webcrawler produces quite a
remarkable result (20 MB):
http://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/pdf/TypoScript%20Reference%206.1.pdf
In the case the paper size was chosen wrong and I didn't stop it
right in time - but you get the idea. Drawback: it's done manually
and takes a lot of time


Q: Does anybody know about a tool or a procedure that crawls a
document and creates a PDF? And that can be run programmatically?

cu ...
