(Sphinx Rst input -> LaTeX -> PDF) But there's also the rst2pdf package (http://code.google.com/p/rst2pdf/), which includes a Sphinx "builder" that uses ReportLab (http://www.reportlab.com/software/opensource/) to generate PDFs directly from the Rst source, bypassing the LaTeX step. YMMV. Either way, I'd choose Sphinx over AsciiDoc, though that may be personal preference. Kevin Horn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sphinx-dev" group.
