Something like:
install my_pdf_file : some_target_that_produces_badly_named_file : <name>nice_name <location>whatever ;
should work.
I tried adding: install pdf-python-install : ../../libs/python/doc/tutorial/doc//tutorial : <location>. <name>python_tutorial.pdf <install-type>PDF <format>pdf ; But get a load of Boost.Build errors: d:/data/boost/Trunk/tools/build/v2/tools\stage.jam:143: in construct from module object(install-target-class)@439 error: When <name> property is used in 'install', only one source is allowed d:/data/boost/Trunk/tools/build/v2/build\targets.jam:1244: in object(install-target-class)@439.generate from module object(install-target-class)@439 d:/data/boost/Trunk/tools/build/v2/build\targets.jam:767: in generate-really from module object(main-target)@444 d:/data/boost/Trunk/tools/build/v2/build\targets.jam:739: in object(main-target)@444.generate from module object(main-target)@444 d:/data/boost/Trunk/tools/build/v2/build\targets.jam:257: in object(project-target)@433.generate from module object(project-target)@433 d:/data/boost/Trunk/tools/build/v2\build-system.jam:682: in load from module build-system d:\data\boost\Trunk\tools\build\v2/kernel\modules.jam:283: in import from module modules d:\data\boost\Trunk\tools\build\v2\kernel\bootstrap.jam:138: in boost-build from module d:\data\boost\Trunk\boost-build.jam:17: in module scope from module Any ideas or workarounds? Thanks, John.
