Hi Tony,
If you want PDF without shelling out for Adobe Acrobat, you might want
to look at DocBook (http://www.docbook.org/). If you're using Fedora/Red
Hat, it is relatively easy to generate nice looking PDF's using just a
text editor and XML. The learning part is tough, though. Or you could
use Open Office, though I haven't tried the PDF function there myself.
