You should hear what friends, family, and some professors have said since the 1940's ;!
Do-it-yourself is the ultimate way of avoiding dimensional worship.
Why else would I want to use Debian rather than Ubuntu/Windows.
Download the text version. Edit to remove unwanted material, Convert to to html with txt2html.
Chuckle.My critical requirement was "single page". I mentioned "html" only because all the Debian docs I've seen are in html and I've seen web based documentation whose default was similar to the d-i manual but offered an alternate URL for a single page version. It's likely that at some point I would have converted the html version to plain text ;)
Comment aimed at future readers:The d-i manual is available in HTML, PDF, and plane text - q.v. http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/installmanual
Information on txt2html available at http://txt2html.sourceforge.net/. Check out the lined examples. I has some interesting possibilities.
