make[1]: *** [Documentation/DocBook/kernel-hacking.pdf] Error 9
make: *** [pdfdocs] Error 2

and the file output look like this

Which Kernel version are you using? It looks like your error has been fixed by:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=9e39dc1e563e8d390bae42ee80e1e665c18b7de2

Unfortunately. make pdfdocs fails when building DocBook/scsi.pdf in the latest stable release (4.1.2)
