I would like to generate PDF versions of the stories on my site. My stories are static, and it makes more sense to generate a PDF file from a story once and save it on the server than it does to generate it on-the-fly each time the file is requested. Are the developers of this module planning to provide an option that allows for the saving of generated PDF files on the server, rather than having them streamed to the user?

My apologies if this has been covered elsewhere or is too far beyond the scope of this module.
