Several folks (including Marcel) have export as PDF working.
The bit we don't currently have is a way to save lots of articles 
together as one PDF. But I figure it just needs a custom php script to 
output one article after another as HTML and then just feed that into 
the PDF script. None of this is tested yet, but then the docs aren't 
written yet either :-)

It was seen as more important to make the documentation articles on 
xaraya.com so the content could be entered and edited more easily. After 
all documentation should always be more about the content than its 
format. We can fudge the format later :-)
