I don't have any problem with pdf's, and I think they are wonderful, specially for reading books. They almost simulate same experience of reading old fashion book, but in computer !
I like the idea of not being responsive. Because let be honest being responsive would come with so much headache. Every device then render it in a different way.
But I think the problem is software's we use as pdf viewers. Companies tend to ignore pdf's. They think if they can render pdf's , that is enough.No it isn't. Some pdf viewer cant get fit-to-width right.It kind of feels like software companies tend to ignore pdf's.
Apple has done wonderful job with their word lookup functionality . If English is your mother tongue then you don't have fucking idea how helpful is that.
I am PC user , Ask Cortana functionality (in pdf's) in Edge made me ditch Google-Chrome for Edge entirely, and believe me I spend all day in browser 24/7 and my whole life was in chrome before ditching it.
(just imagine how important that simple functionality is for non-English speakers) I don't know how to emphasize it more, but believe me, that simple Lookup (without opening new browser tab and searching for "define $word" is the most functionality most of non-English users want).
p.s. I wish google add pdf word lookup functionality to this :
