The trick is to use 'sphinx' the python documentation tool.   Probably 
what you want to do is take tools/build/CMake/doc, swap out the logo, 
cut out the boost-specific stuff, add acknowledgements, etc..  There's a 
makefile in there that will build html, latex, all kinda stuff.  To get 
pdf you 'make latex', then in the build/latex directory there will be a 
makefile with a 'make pdf' target in it.
