AFAIK, the LDP site also has the various docs in
downloadable formats for off-line reading - most of
them are available as tarred-and-gzipped html along
with dvi and postscript which might be more printer
friendly.

The various "Guides" (System Admin guide, Network
Admin guide etc.) are well written and give a good
overall picture, in contrast to the HOWTOS that are
of their nature very specific.

For documents which aren't available as one down-
loadable file, the "wget" utility is very useful
for retrieving a set of linked html pages as a
batch.
