Having the docs in PDF form is very useful for many people. It would be great if we could get that.

Research direction
Investigate how Akka generates PDF docs from its source. Look at the current docs build setup in the akka http repository (likely using Paradox). Determine if there is an existing sbt plugin for PDF generation (e.g., sbt paradox pdf). Provide a plan to integrate PDF generation into the build process, possibly by adding a new sbt task.
