Hello,

According to the Handbook, documentation is available in various downloadable formats here:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/

I was looking for the Rich Text Format version, but found that both book.rtf.bz2 and book.rtf.zip actually contain the PDF version of the document; so do the PostScript archives.

I found this to be the case for the Handbook, Developers' Handbook and Architecture Handbook; I'm guessing [all?] other books are affected as well.


Kind regards and keep up the great work!

I have a patch for doc.docbook.mk which fixes this, but can't commit it until the doc build script on the cluster is changed.

This was corrected months back.
