Migration to Frame 5.5.
Checking in the PDF file. (This is questionable -- but we check in the
Postscript as well. Perhaps *both* should be removed from the CVS tree,
now everything is unbundled and we're distributing PS and PDF tarballs?)
Note -- the HTML generation using webmaker is currently broken. I'll
have to look into generating HTML from Frame...
