Anyway, I've added text-to-pdf conversion for all RFCs and IDs under
the URL http://tools.ietf.org/pdf/,
so you can get pdf- conversions of our various documents.

Comments welcome.
Well, I have only one comment. This is great!
A simple script written once, saves effort time and again.
My only remaining wish is one that I have regarding the ID listings in
general,
namely that one has to know the updated version number
(in general I start at the last one I remember and start incrementing
until I get one that pops up).
It would be great if I could write
http://tools.ietf.org/pdf/draft-ietf-pwe3-satop
and it would automatically determine that the latest version is 03
and redirect to
http://tools.ietf.org/pdf/draft-ietf-pwe3-satop-03.pdf
Right. The equivalent functionality is already implemented for the
html-conversion case (http://tools.ietf.org/html/) where you can
do exactly what you describe (except it fails to correctly choose
between draft-ietf-pwe3-satop and draft-ietf-pwe3-satop-mib - this
is a bug I'll have a look at later).
You can try out
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pwe3-tdmoip
or for the plaintext document,
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-pwe3-tdmoip
and it will do the right thing, and get you the latest version.
I'll add this to the PDF conversion tool too, but I'll try to do it
as a general mechanism, so you won't see it in place tonight.
I'll also add cross-links between the different formats, providing
a link from the html format of a document to the PDF format, but
that's a little bit further down on the TODO list currently.
Regards,
Henrik
