It is possible in PDF if the PDF is tagged. It is called re-flowing the document. Adobe readers support reflow but most of the other readers do not which is why you said what you said. It is even possible to tag a PDF file after the fact although best results are achieved if it is done at the time the file is created. Tags add smarts about the text to aid in the reflow. Adobe has a content product that is used with ActiveSync on a PC to post tag documents moved to a PPC device so that they can be reflowed. I have seen a product for Palm devices that claims to reflow documents even if they are not tagged but I do not know how well it works.
