Do you have the Octave sources installed on your machine? If so, go to
the top level source directory and type

make doc

(you may need to run configure first, if you haven't yet done so).

This will create the manual in html form (look in the doc/interpreter
directory). It will also create a .dvi which can easily be converted to
.pdf using the dvipdf utility.

There is a .dvi of the manual "octave.dvi":

address@hidden src]$ ls -l octave-2.1.64/doc/interpreter/octave.dvi
-rw-rw-r-- 1 dima dima 1366336 Dec 15 17:07 octave-2.1.64/doc/interpreter/octave.dvi

(It is included in the tarball)

(Thanks for that tip, Dmitri S. :-)

dvips should convert octave.dvi to a PS file.
