I've already said it several times on the forums, and of course, was promptly ignored. They think that simply drag-dropping a PDF onto a magic tool, that then in turn preserves their layout, is the bees knees.
What they don't know is all the reasons NOT to use it. But honestly, I'm done lecturing about it. I know all too well from my own business that people have an incredibly hard time visualizing the reality of big pages on small devices. They think that everything will work like a PDF dropped onto a phone; that users will zoom and pan-n-scan around the document. They don't think about how bloody ANNOYING it would be to read an entire book that way, nor how ridiculous a huge text-heavy page will look, on, say, a 6" Fire or even a PPW.
