The PDF manual available on the postgresql web site is quite difficult
to use. For example, take a look at table 9.5 (pages 125 and 126). Text
goes beyond the cells. It's really difficult to read it. Sometimes you
can't read the text because it goes beyond the page : see pages 223 and
345).

I think these are real important issues.
