There appear to be plugins to do this, but since Apache hosts the wiki infra for us, we don’t get to toss in any plugins we want unfortunately.

Thank you for opening the issue.
I'm not sure that my case is representative. I'm spending every day
three hours in the train (commuting to work). I like to use this time to
have a closer look into manuals. Printouts and laptops are horrible in
this situation. So there is only the alternative between my 10" tablet
and my 6" e-reader. I prefer the more handy reader.
No, I can't afford a nice Nexus7. Not now ;-)

I've often thought of possibly providing the reference guide in .epub
format, but wasn't sure of general interest. I also once tried to
convert the PDF version with calibre and it was a total mess. - but
PDF is probably the least-flexible starting point for conversion.
Unfortunately, the Word export is only available on a per-page basis,
which would make it really tedious to try to make a .doc version of
the entire guide (there are ~150 pages). There are, however, options
for HTML export, which I believe could be converted to .epub - but
might take some fiddling.
I created an issue for this - for now just to track that it's
something that might be of interest - but not sure if/when I'd
personally be able to work on it:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5467.

I see, 'Word' isn't optimal for a reference guide. But OO can handle
'doc' and has epub plugins.
Could it be possible, to offer the doku also as 'doc(x)'

Atlassian Jira has two options at default: exporting to PDF and exporting
to Word.

I'd like to read the guide as e-paper. Is there a way to obtain the
document in the Format epub or odt.
Trying to convert the PDF with Calibre, wasn't very satisfyingly. :-(
