Juergen,

Regarding the bugs you are experiencing in yelp, you are probably better of 
communicating them via a yelp mailing list. This is the gnucash-user mailing 
list. Yelp is just an external tool used by GnuCash.

As for alternatives, the gnucash documentation is also available in plain html 
on the GnuCash website (http://www.gnucash.org/documentation.phtml). It 
doesn't use the same stylesheet as yelp, so it looks slightly more basic, but 
all the same information is there. You can print from there is you like.
