How do I...
-----------
+... create PDF builds without LaTeX?
+ You can use `rst2pdf <http://rst2pdf.googlecode.com>`_ version 0.12 or greater
+ which comes with built-in Sphinx integration. See the :ref:`builders`
+ section for details.
+
... get section numbers?
They are automatic in LaTeX output; for HTML, give a ``:numbered:`` option to
the :dir:`toctree` directive where you want to start numbering.
