In fact, someone suggested the same on <comp.os.linux.misc>.  I totally
forgot about HTML.  I was thinking LaTeX, but I wasn't sure whether
200MB TeX would be installed on target machine, which this whole thing
is supposed to run.

Then again, HTML requires browser...  I'll look into generating
Postscript directly.  That would be the cleanest solution.  If not, I'll
go with HTML template.

Thanks Lennart.
