I can confirm this is also the case for the 2.0.0.M2 PDF. Not sure how the PDF is being generated. With just a little guidance on the approach taken, I'll be happy to take this on.

Jack,

Thanks for offering to help.

The source is at https://github.com/grails/grails-doc. The REAMDE describes how to build the docs. Let me know if you have any trouble with that.

Thanks again!

There is very little we can do other than to generate the PDF directly from the gdoc (we currently use XHtmlRenderer to convert single.html -> single.pdf). The reason the right hand side is chopped off is that some code samples are too wide. I'll try to make sure the 2.0.0.RC2 guide is OK. Note that RC1 is fine and doesn't have the right hand side chopped off.

I took a look at this - I updated the CSS files in this way, and the resulting PDF's right margin looks okay (I generated with wkpdf on OSX):

diff css ~/Downloads/archive/build/docs/css
diff css/main.css /Users/seanleblanc/Downloads/archive/build/docs/css/main.css
90d89
< width: 90%;
641d639
< width: 95%;
diff css/tools.css /Users/seanleblanc/Downloads/archive/build/docs/css/tools.css
47d46
< width:97%;
