Unfortunately, yes it is. Just yesterday, my wife tried to open a pdf transcript from her college. It would not open on anything other that Adobe Reader on a traditional os, putting it out of reach for her, being an Android/Chromebook user. Neither Chrome nor Google Drive/Docs could open it. And I could only open it in Adobe Reader on my laptop - not Firefox, not Chrome, and not whatever default viewer my laptop has. We've had this problem with PDF's from another organization, too. It is a real problem.
