XF 2.0 Easy way of grabbing the XF2 docs in a PDF?

[Kevin]

Is there a recommended method of grabbing the XF2 docs in a PDF for offline reading? I'm currently re-reading the Finders section and wouldn't mind having all of the docs available in a nice PDF for offline reading on my tablet when on the road.



(Hey, I'm old, give me a break, sometimes I absorb the material better when reading it offline like a novel. )

Some (mobile) browsers do have the option to store pages for offline use.

Not even that. Print > Save to PDF is a default option in most browsers or OS':





The stylesheet already has certain rules to exclude certain elements from printing.

I saw I can grab individual sections that way but is there a 'master' link to view everything at once for printing?

Well, you only mentioned specifically the Finders section.

I guess you'd just need to print each page (each main item in the navigation).

But use sparingly, I don't want to start adding this to the documentation...

P Please consider the environment before printing this documentation!

Could also download each section as a separate PDF, then use some PDF merging tool to combine them into one

Oh, I'm not physically printing them! I'm not that old! When I said viewing a 'master' view for printing I meant it as "printing from the browser into a PDF" in Chrome. The goal is the original question of getting them into a PDF so I can read them offline at my leisure, likely on my tablet. Between a desktop, laptop, phone, and tablet, my tablet has essentially been relegated to being an e-reader.

I haven't tried any utilities like that before but it might be an interesting time killer for me to check it out. Yeah, the easiest scenario would be to 'print' each section and then refer to them as needed, it was just that with the online docs being nice & shiny built with MkDocs, and it even being hosted on Github, that there might have been a way to get everything in one shot.
