Re: [DOCS] 9.0.3 pdf manual is missing bookmarks

[CC'ing the -www list, since this affects the PDFs provided by the
website. Ugh, and resending without attachments since it looks like
the last attempt didn't make it to the list.]

Hi Gabriele,

Thanks for taking the time to report this, and sorry for the delay in
following up. Just to clarify what (I think) Gabriele is complaining
about, here [1] is a screenshot from the Okular viewer of the
9.0.3 -A4 or -US PDFs from the website [2]. You can see that the
"Contents" pane in the top left is greyed out [3].

When I built these PDFs from the 9.0.3 tarball myself, the results
looked better [4]. Assuming this fixes Gabriele's problem, could we
update the website with the fixed versions [5] of the 9.0.3 PDFs?

Also, I noticed that the page of PDFs is not consistent with the PDF
naming scheme wrt. minor version numbers. We provide e.g.
"postgresql-8.4.6-A4.pdf" and "postgresql-9.0-A4.pdf". Personally, I
like having the minor version number included, but could we just be
consistent either way?

Josh

"bookmarks", plus its index on page 1759 is missing entirely.
