[docs] Large print / small paper size (maybe A5) python docs.

[Matt | Varghese Mathew]

I have a Kindle 3, and I personally have taken to getting A5 sized pdfs
(printing as pdfs off project gutenberg etc) and reading them rather than
using the epub/mobi formats primarily because it's nice to have a page
number and a very conveniently portable format. But that's just one thought.
