| | 1 | This page details the PDF build of the boost documentation. |
| | 2 | |
| | 3 | SVN commit #51104 to trunk provides the basic support: improved fo.xsl stylesheet, tweaked individual Jamfiles so they find their images etc when being built as a PDF, and adds doc/pdf/Jamfile.v2 to build all boost libraries that can be as individual PDF's. |

| | 5 | Beta builds of the PDF's are available from http://boost.cowic.de/rc/pdf/ |

| | 8 | ~~~~~~ |
| | 9 | |
| | 10 | * Some of the PDF's are badly named: for example the python tutorial is simply "tutorial.pdf", Phoenix is "users_manual.pdf" and Boost.Build is "standalone.pdf". |
| | 11 | * The libraries a, b and c do not currently build as PDF's - their XML is invalid, looks like an easy fix though - just tweak their usage of hyperlinks at global (ie not in a section) scope. |
| | 12 | * The BoostBook documentation doesn't build as a PDF: Lots of inval XML, this one looks much harder to fix. |
| | 13 | * Currently only RenderX's XEP FO processor will build all the docs correctly, Apache FOP is *still* not mature enough :-( |
