Our store systems do not use the X Window System, and we were considering
sending some documentation to them in PDF format. The only utilities I know
of off-hand require X to view.
have control over the generation of the documents. For example, you could
create using OpenOffice, save as sxw, doc, html, and PDF. You could also
create using Word or WordPerfect and either print to postscript and use ps2pdf
or use the Adobe distiller (extra cost).
You could have a simple server or apache and display the pages using lynx
on the store systems. The PDF could be used for print-ready docs and displayable
on in-store windows boxes, etc.
