Hello Charles,
You are lucky that you now have the pdf-tab howto as I went through this exercise a few weeks ago, although it wasn't too much trouble.
Anyway, the site pdf should be available from the site root, i.e. http://my_site/site.pdf
When you look through the docs on this, you will notice that the pattern matching looks for site under the root context.
Don't know if that helps or not :-)

Subject: whole site pdf missing?
Team
The default site.xml contains this:
<all>
<whole_site_html href="site.html" label="Whole Site HTML" />
<whole_site_html href="site.pdf" label="Whole Site PDF" />
</all>
and this page: http://forrest.apache.org/docs/your-project.html says this: "Note: Forrest's default sitemap defines a whole-site HTML and PDF, available as site.html and site.pdf."
and this page: http://forrest.apache.org/howto/howto-pdf-tab.html says this: "By default Forrest generates a pdf file for each separate document of your project. As well you can create a pdf of the whole site. But sometimes it may be necessary to generate a pdf file out of selected tab, i.e. only for certain parts of the site."
Now, I want to start investigating creating pdfs "only for certain parts of the site", and I guess the lengthy link above will guide me through this. But from the above comments I would have expected to see a site.pdf, containing the whole site, but I don't.
Why can't I see site.pdf? and am I safe to follow the instructions in the link above to create pdfs from multiple pages, or is there more to it...
Charles
