Another drawback to PDFs (as opposed to HTML) is that the end user can't
easily modify it for use on her machine.  F'rinstance:  From this end, your
messages always look like you choose six point type, and that would be a
pain in online documentation. (I suspect you choose a font which I don't
have.) With HTML, that would be an easy fix.  With Acrobat, an unfortunate
font mapping would be harder to modify.
