There is a small "print this book" link in the top corner next to the github link that can save as a PDF. Might not give you the nicest page layout but hell, it is free. And free to read online, and free to read offline with rustup docs --book.

Thanks! I didn't see the option to "print" it as a PDF in the top right.

The layout looks just fine to me. You are a lifesaver!
