GPL is for code, not documentation.
Imagine for example a situation in which you distribute some documentation and
want people to print it and charge for it (commercial distribution), however
you are publishing the documentation in PDF format.
With GPL you also need to provide the source (latex, openoffice, doc, html
whatever), but this is not the issue here. The most important thing in
documentation is the content, not the media.
