Ok, I am a bit late to this discussion, but may I make the friendly suggestion that we all agree that there are differing opinions in regard to the usefulness of the PDF format, and that we won't find a definite answer, at least for now?
There were a few unfortunate remarks that could easily be interpreted as personal attacks. I would like to remind everyone that this is a friendly community and that we don't condone personal attacks. Please respect this, or we cannot continue having this discussion.
Thank you.
