You could either use the one of pdfs, provided on the website at:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/manuals/

Or, if you have the wherewithal to compile docs yourself
there is the option to compile into a single file
by doing, inside doc/src/sgml:

make postgres.html

This yields a single 14 MB file: postgres.html

Perhaps the project can make this file available?
( perhaps it is available already? )
