Thank you. What page is this file [with all PDFs] linked from?

None, because we want to phase them out


I noticed over the weekend a message to a similar query that said these
PDFs were old (circa March, I believe), and that they may not continue to
be maintained, since they are produced manually instead of automatically.

I don't know what documentation tool is being used, but I believe
FrameMaker would allow multiple target formats to be automatically
produced from a single source.  Other tools with this capability may well
exist.

SAP uses a homegrown documentation system, which has it's advantages, especially for the translators. But there are only two kinds of output possible:
- Word (and exporting several Word documents and feeding them to Adobe was the manual work I was referring to). Besides, interdocument links are not supported
- HTML (and the Open Source tools to translate HTML to PDF gave unsatisfactory results on last try).
