Re: [QGIS-Developer] Broken links to PDF manuals
I am fond of PDFs. In some situations, I find them more convenient to read, and I often use the PDFs for text search on the complete "document". So, -1 for removing the PDFs.

The link is http://docs.qgis.org/3.4/pdf/en/QGIS-3.4-UserGuide-en.pdf but that redirects to https://docs.qgis.org/3.4/en/en/QGIS-3.4-UserGuide-en.pdf The same happens to different language versions: http://docs.qgis.org/3.4/pdf/nl/QGIS-3.4-UserGuide-nl.pdf redirects to https://docs.qgis.org/3.4/en/nl/QGIS-3.4-UserGuide-nl.pdf Michel -Oorspronkelijk bericht- Van: QGIS-Developer Namens Nyall Dawson Verzonden: vrijdag 10 mei 2019 8:30 Aan: qgis-developer Onderwerp: [QGIS-Developer] Broken links to PDF manuals Hey list, Can anyone confirm for me that the link to download PDF versions of the QGIS manual is currently broken?

Hi Nyall, Yep, working on it, we ( Harrissou :-) ) rearranged the convoluted apache configuration for documentation (was full of redirects/rewrites). But we missed the pdf. Will show up soon. Are these actually used? Because when busy testing new sphinx/templates/Make/Build of docs I was thinking about getting rid of pdf. But instead go for the 'zipped' docs route, which can be viewed in QGIS itself. (though if pdf build 'just keep working' and are needed, we can keep on building them) Regards, Richard Duivenvoorde ___ QGIS-Developer mailing list QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
