ms office and simple plain text format compatibility should have been included. i'm not saying that the user should have the ability to edit any data, just be able to open up these document types. since ms office documents and text documents cannot be saved with annotations, if you choose to annotate these and then save, the saved version would be saved in pdf format, leaving the original file intact.

Being able to read all potential office documents and converting them to PDF on the device sounds like a gigantic and risky software undertaking, especially when some document formats aren't even standardized. It makes more sense to just export the office document to PDF using the native application that created it.
