    Sadly no. We have not had new complete PDFs of the docs since CF11. (There was briefly a set for CF2016, but they only had the first section or two (of depth) for each chapter, and then pointed one online for the rest. That was pretty pointless, and they were yanked.)

    The problem is that the CF docs were written with an approach that doesn’t work well with the new Adobe platform for docs. You’ll see this reflected in the online docs as well, where sadly there are often no breadcrumbs or navigational features for pages, if you find one (via google, for instance) that is deeper than the first level or two.

    The folks responsible for the CF docs have said they were working on this, but of course they had to focus on CF2018. Perhaps they may get back to it now.

    Like you, I would LOVE a PDF with the entire manual for each of the several CF docs. Until then, you have to find things in the online version of the docs instead. (If someone may find that Adobe DID finally create updated PDFs, that would be great news.)
