That was my fallback option. I wanted the pdf's in the repository so that
they can be accessed directly off the apache server (via a browser) by
someone who neither wanted to deal with the .tex files or use subversion to
access them.

What I'll do instead is just move the pdf's to another directory shared by
apache, so it's no real problem.

Thanks for the quick response :-)
