OK, I will commit that change.

I have tweaked the PDF generation and switched to using some nice free 
to use fonts (Google Noto) if they are available. Results are here:

and for an A4 paper size:

I had to swap a couple of text vs. image orderings to get more sensible 
page breaks. Having an image after a section title then putting the lead 
para after the image generally works best because the heading is kept 
with the first element i.e. the image, which avoids an ugly orphaning 
the image on a new page when the lead para is short.

I will commit the changes to generate the PDFs, they are benign for 
anyone who does not have the tools installed.
