Oh yes, it is also possible with PDF. But you need a reader like AdobeReader or Foxit on the PC.

- The TOC can be shown at the side of the readerwindow. Nice to see it an the Text at the same time.
- An hyperlinks work. I have PDF with the whole yeare of an astronomical magzin. There are hyperlinks in the image of the original TOC of the magazine. And at the top of the pages back to the TOC.

But of cource, you don't have this on the little ebookreaders. You are right. There it is better to use epub.
