It can download the whole book with images and automatically generate LaTeX source code, which can be directly translated into a PDF file. Still, some knowledge of LaTeX is required, but the tool can greatly reduce time of preparing PDF version of a textbook.

Just curious: When using images, does it
* get the image authors as well?
* list individual image licenses somewhere?
