In fact I don't think I've even looked at the generated pdfs to see if they have decent links. It's the lack of links that I find slow and having to search for what I want. It's possible that ghostscript generates pdfs with links. One thing I'm sure of is the work involved in generating pdfs will be a lot more than getting an offline docuwiki working. I'm busy with a blender svn update atm and then I need to check on lilypond, my worst nightmare, after that I will check out the svn link you gave me and the feasibility of making an offline docuwiki.
