The browser is called "Document Examiner" and the
authoring environment is called "Concordia".

Concordia is available for Genera from Symbolics
(http://www.symbolics.com/). It is also bundled
with Open Genera 2.0, which is an emulation of the
Lisp machine for DEC Alpha machines.

It is possible to create PDF files from the Symbolics
documentation via Concordia. I don't know what the
policy of Symbolics in this case is - whether they would
distribute PDF files of their documentation, etc.
