PDF docs for LocalFunction, ScopeExit, Functional/OverloadedFunction, and Utility/IdentityType looks good. A very minor thing is that the graph images for LocalFunction are cut because they are too big and go out of page width (see pages 38-40) -- there's probably nothing that can be done about that. BTW, which command did you use to generate the PDF? bjam pdf? They look really good and I'd like to be able to generate them for some of my internal project that use qbk documentation.

Yup! It's a feature, not a bug ;-)

It's a lot more than a command ! If you are serious, ask privately to me or John for more help. There are some docs but ... it's a fair bit of hassle to set up, but works fine (well certainly it knows the hand of the master ;-) Paul --- Paul A.

As mentioned in my other message - correctly setting the dpi in the image file can fix this. Of course vector formats such as SVG or indeed PDF produce better looking PDF graphics.

Before that, please look at: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/BoostDocs/GettingStarted#Howtobuildpdf... HTH, John.

I was able to generate Contract++ PDF :) However, the code in tables with more than 1 column looks bad (because all columns have the same width). Is there a way to fix that or at least to generate the PDF on A4 landspace instead of portrait? For example, look at the code in table on page 3: http://contractpp.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/contractpp/trunk/doc/html/contr... versus its HTML version: http://contractpp.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/contractpp/trunk/doc/html/index...

Sure, but the body text will likely be unreadable on those long lines. See http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/ for more information on this, especially chapters 8 and 13. HTH, John.

I've just changed the images DPI to 300dpi - this doesn't change html browser views (checked on IE, Firefox and Opera) - but does alter PDF rendering. I haven't rebuilt the whole PDF build, but I've placed the updated local_function.pdf here: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B9xLRWKoNSvKc05JSV9fQzlyV1k

Yes "bjam pdf": you will need an FO processor configured in your user-config.jam (either XEP or Apache FOP). John.
