11 Right now the closest thing you'll get to a "print" layout is the one we
12 made that's suitable for, well, printing:

14 http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-amd64.xml?style=printable&full=1

16 Append ?style=printable&full=1 to the desired architecture. That's about

18 layout) into a *useful* PDF via scripts, please provide 'em.
