Download documentation
The PHP manual is available in a selection of languages
and formats. Pick a language and format from the table below
to start downloading.
Note that the packaged HTML version of the manual
(tar.bz2) doesn't contain any directories,
so all of the files will be dumped into your current working
directory when you expand the archive unless the tool you
use does otherwise.
Please note that due to some technical problems, the PDF
version of the manual is not complete, but only the first 45
chapters are available. Other formats hold the complete manual.

Documentation howto
The PHP Documentation Team has a documentation howto, including coverage
on how to set up a working environment on Unix/Linux/Windows, how to build
HTML formatted docs from the XML sources, what conventions to follow when
writing documentation, etc. If you are interested in the process, or would
like to start/join a translation, this is a must read:

French PHP Manual
The French PHP manual is also available on an external site, in differents formats.
Documentation is the official flavor, while formating and localization has
been worked some more (function and examples indexes, short version, search engine..).
Besides, those are compressed for faster download.

La documentation Française est disponible sur un site secondaire,
dans différents formats. C'est la version officielle, complètement
francisée et retravaillée. De plus, ces docs sont compressées.
