Hi,

[Disclaimer before asking: A newbie with sphinx and latex here. :) ]

I am trying to compile a pdf version for printing of the OSGeo Live
DVD documentation [0] the sources are available in the svn [1].

I did the following:

1. Modified the conf.py for latex generation.
2. Created a separate index.rst as the source of the toctree since the
default index.rst doesn't have a logical ordering of rst files.
3. Run make latex and pdflatext textfile.tex

So far, I get good results, however some issues are:

1.  Running pdflatex, I get lots of errors for gif and png images like this:
 LaTeX Error: Unknown graphics extension: .gif.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
 ...

l.632 \includegraphics{usb_penlinux_licence2.gif}

2. Images doesn't align similar to the html output. See this html [2]
and this pdf image [3]

3.  The project and osgeo logo are large and always on the last page of the
preceding project page.  Unlike in the html where it is on the
upper-right corner.  See this [4] and this [5]

What I want is to modify the rst files (and avoid tex munging if
possible) so that I can push my changes to svn.

As I said I am a newbie in sphinx and in this list.  Maybe this was
asked before so please direct me to the relevant references.  Thanks
in advance!
