I uploaded a quick PDF I created with no attempt to beautify it. I took
your no-chunks HTML and just printed it using cups-PDF. I didn't see
any graphics in your web page, except for admonitions icons, so you
won't see any in the doc.
The links for the PDF files are:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JohnBabich?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=FC6UG.pdf
Another example is the Desktop User Guide, complete with screenshots, at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JohnBabich?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=DUG.pdf
This was produced from this link:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/DesktopUserGuide/Print
using File > Print (using printer CUPS/cups-PDF).
The output is even cleaner if you select
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/DesktopUserGuide/Print?action=print
which is the same as "Print View" under "More Actions" on the wiki page.
Let me know what you think of these samples.
