You can download the English EPub and plain text formats here, just change '.en.' in the URL to '.de.' for German or one of the other language codes. https://www.debian.org/cur/doc/manuals/debian-reference/debian-reference.en.epub https://www.debian.org/cur/doc/manuals/debian-reference/debian-reference.en.txt You can install the debian-reference-en package and you will have the English version of the reference in /usr/share/debian-reference/ with HTML, EPub and plain text formats available. German and other translations are available in the other debian-reference-* packages. https://packages.debian.org/sid/debian-reference-en https://packages.debian.org/sid/all/debian-reference-en/filelist https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=debian-reference If you would like all the HTML files in one zip file available on the Debian website, please discuss it on the debian-doc mailing list: https://lists.debian.org/debian-doc/ I don't think there is a copy of the Debian Reference in PDF or one-page HTML formats, if you would like to have those, please report a bug about it against the debian-reference package. https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
