According to some random person on the net who took the time to make this.
Source

"It didn't work" isn't helpful. What was the exact command used and the output.
Read FAQ #3 and use that cmd
Please use the Code button for exiftool output

Please include your OS/Exiftool version/filetype

LOL.  I see a #2 in our future... ;)

Edit:  Note that the official PDF Tag Name documentation is currently only 557 pages.  Maybe this source is using a larger font.
...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).

It looks like the command they used was
curl -s <link to Arch man page> | man -Tpdf -l - > file.pdf

So whatever size man uses.

Right.

We should actually be in 2nd place already because the exiftool and API man pages are 40 and 37 pages respectively they way I generate them.  They say they are including only the largest man page in a package to avoid duplication, but there is no overlap between these.
