Actually, the info pages are *very* nice for generating printed material, if
you're into that sort of thing. However, you need the texinfo file from the
source package.

Make sure you have texinfo-tex installed, find the .texi file for the
document, and run "texi2pdf whatever.texi", and after some verbose
crunching, you'll have a very nice book in "whatever.pdf".
