Hi

I noted this glitch since 28.x.  Still there in 29.x.

HTML version has the section on 'rx' regexps coding, but it is missing from
the PDFs downloadable from the main site
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/emacs.html

All the best

The section about "Rx Notation" in doc/lispref/searching.texi is embedded with

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
@ifnottex
@node Rx Notation
@subsection The @code{rx} Structured Regexp Notation
...
@end ifnottex
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The commit message of ac1ad3e49abd, which brought it to the manual,
claims

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
    The additions are excluded from the print version to avoid making it
    thicker.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So it isn't a bug. Closing.

> All the best

Best regards, Michael.
