Conversely, writing a long document (e.g. a manual) in
the wiki pretty
much demands the use of subpages to split up the contents. That,
however, complicates exporting the wiki pages and combing them in a
single document (DOC or PDF). (Not to mention the general issue of
converting hypertext to linear documents.)
Also, I am not aware of any production-ready wiki2doc (or wiki2odf)
converters that would enable us to fine-tune the layout in a word processor.
Magnus made some time ago a tool able to export from wiki markup to
OpenOffice and PDF (although i haven't seen it on action) among other
formats.
