Separate pdf files for modules and/or tutorials
@carlocamilloni @maxbonomi I noticed that in the supp info of the PLUMED-ISDB paper you copied part of the pdf manual, I think that's a good idea. Though I see that you "brutally" took part of the whole pdf manual.
I was wondering if we should try to improve a bit the pdf manual in general. In particular, there are currently problems with figures. In addition, I think the manual as a whole is too long, and shorter sections as you did might be more useful.
It would be nice to generate sub-parts of the manual. E.g., imagine a single pdf file for a tutorial or for a module (such as the one that you did for PLUMED-ISDB, but starting from page 1 and including only the relevant references), where links that are not solved can be redirected to the online manual.
Could this make sense?

Absolutely yes! We were kind of lazy ;-)
Do you think it is hard to do?

I don't know... The only way is to try :-)
I would say the first thing to do would be to fix the image inclusion so that they appear in the pdf (otherwise at least tutorials would be sort of useless).
The other thing that might be a bit tricky is to find which links are missing so as to redirect them online.
Doxygen produces a standard .tex file, so perhaps the easiest way is to process that file with some script.
Will give a look this week and try to do it!

Let me know if you need help. In case you can also take advantage of doxygen aliases (there is example now already used to get inspiration)
Ok!
