Suggestion regarding the documentation

Don't want to stir the pot by opening another thread on docs but it seems worth mentioning:
I just noticed that linuxcnc_documentation.pdf and the online html version seem to be out of sync.
At least the whole section on QtVcp ( linuxcnc.org/docs/stable/html/gui/qtvcp.html ) seems to be missing in the pdf.

Currently I often switch between 'traditional book reading' the pdfs on an ebook reader when not sitting in front of the pc and htmls when actively doing stuff. So if I stumble upon other missing stuff I can let you know...

having just started to look at the pdfs (online) instead of the html docs on line, they do look different or have older content in them

Not directly related, but there is a huge re-organisation of the docs underway to make translation into different languages easier. At the end of that all the docs should be automatically synching to the english version (though it would be nice to find a way that corrections / additions submitted in any language could be merged in)

There are two places in the docs to include a chapter, perhaps the QtVcp author forgot to put it in the Submakefile.

I don't know what's being used now but has switching to something like readthedocs.io been considered? It has some features to handle localization. I'm sure it'd be no small undertaking to change.
