Thanks for the tip!

I was hoping that it was possible but I didn't push hard to look for the solution because of my limited understanding about latex. I thought latex is a tool to help people produce professional looking *printed* documents like books, thesis, etc. And the pdf produced from these tools are like preview of what documents look like in print.

Now that I know better, I will play with it some more because this could become handy to create short and simple professional-looking manuals or guides.
