Sorry folks, but as things stand there will be no PDF build of the docs for 1.56 as the build script appears to be hopelessly broken :-(
Each time I fix one Boost.Build error it just leads to another, and frankly at present I have neither time nor inclination to keep tracking these down. If anyone wants to experience some pain then trying to invoke bjam in /doc/pdf/ will give you an idea of some of the issues.
You mean :

I would ask the Boost Build mavens on their mailing list. They rarely answer me <g> but I'll bet they will answer you.
