I was going to hold my tongue, but it started wagging anyway: In my experience, notebooks don't really look nice when printed to PDF, nor do they look nice when exported to HTML. Some people have worked around this issue. Obviously, MathWorld is a shining example. I have also seen PDFs, from people that post on this group, that certainly look well done. I think that the problem of (lack of ease of) exporting great looking results is holding back Mathematica adoption. I would pimp my own solution, MMADE, but it isn't easy to use. Maybe I should have written it to use Mathematica for the building process instead of Ant.
