[Bf-docboard] Downloadable Manual

[Bart Veldhuizen]

Hi Ewout,

the easiest way would be to create a stylesheet for printed media  
that would suppress the navigation elements and other things that you  
want to hide. After that, creating a PDF file from the web-page would  
be just a matter of printing the document to a PDF (on my Mac,  
anyway ;-)
