Hi Peng,

All of the module documentation for BioPerl is in POD format. It's possible
to convert POD into several different types of output, including PDF.

There are at least two different scripts that will do the POD to PDF
conversion, the latter of which is on CPAN:
http://perl.jonallen.info/projects/pod2pdf
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Pod-Pdf/scripts/pod2pdf

Because the documentation for each module is actually in the same file as
the code itself, if you have BioPerl on your computer, then you have all of
the documentation, too. So another way to see the documentation for each
module is from the command line via the perldoc command:
$ perldoc Bio::SeqIO
