@soc said: Single-column PDFs seems to work quite well. An approach to good results with small efforts might be generating DinA5-sized PDFs. I'll try that later.
@soc said: After migrating it to INF I can't assign it to me ...
@soc said: I tried to recreate them from the TeX sources, but some fonts seem to be missing ...
Phil Troy (philtroy) said: If given the source files (in .tex or some other format), I would be willing to try to convert scala by example to epub format.

@heathermiller said: Excellent- by any chance, would you be interested in helping us to make HTML and PDF versions instead/as well? I think the biggest complaint so far is that these things do not exist in HTML. I have an idea of how we could go about doing it (first converting our .tex source to markdown, then generating HTML, and generating PDFs from the HTML using PrinceXML)
@heathermiller said: Regardless, the .tex source can be found in the scala-dist repository on github: https://github.com/scala/scala-dist
The source for the above documents live here: https://github.com/scala/scala-dist/tree/master/documentation/src/reference
@SethTisue said: If this is still applicable, please open a GitHub issue instead (perhaps in the scala-lang or scala.github.com repos).
I'll look into it and figure out if work/benefit ratio is worth it. (I just got an eBook reader.)
