    Hi everyone,
    I've already read this post https://forum.qt.io/topic/93158/qt-quick-documentation-in-pdf-or-epub. But wasn't yet resolved.
    So I ask a more general question.
    Is is a way to have Qt documentation in pdf format? Not the class documentation but all the explanation about component, or instruction like 'Qt for embedded linux"...
    Thank you

      It's HTML (doc.qt.io) and QCH (used in Qt Creator, for example, shipped with every Qt installation). There is no Qt documentation in PDF format.

          @mrjj sometimes it's convienient to read book-wise from start to end ;)

          Qt has to stay free or it will die.

            aha, ( no pun intended ) but that would require the docs to be restructured to be more like
            a book than a hyperlinked media.
            So i guess converting the site to a pdf will not make poster happy.

                Indeed I preferred to read a book than a website. Not convenient for me.
                But thank you for replying ;)

                  Indeed, a book layout is nicer to read for overview sort of info.
                  However, converting the site to pdf did not yield a good result
                  as it not very linear and to make it work good, one would have to cherry pick the sections
                  and make it into a proper book layout.

                    @Foufy https://wiki.qt.io/Books contains a list of printed books. Some of them might be available as ebook too.
