We've talked about this before and had it in mind when working on the
documentation. It should be as simple as writing a different style sheet
for sphinx and directing the output to a different format. I think
sphinx has support for latex which can then be piped to pdf or something
similar.

We would be happy to host the style files in svn along with the web styles.

Thanks,
