Hey Richard!

 RM> According to my experience this entirely depends on the contents
 RM> of the pdf docuemnt.

Exactly the same situation here.  My experience thus far has been that there is
little to nothing that couldn't have been expressed in a text document at a
fraction of the bytes as well as being far more compatible to almost every
computer that has ever been including C64's.

As for graphics, I shake my head whenever I see that the graphic shown may not
actually represent the item the pdf is supposed to be about.  Often the pdf
isn't even about the item one was enquiring or wondering about in the first
place.

Having said that, every now and then someone actually writes a pdf that has
value but it is vastly outweighed by volumes of crap.  Then again it could have
been expressed in a plain good old fahioned text file and saved everyone,
including the autor(s), a bunch of grief.

Your mileage may vary.

Life is good,
Maurice
