How does pdf solve link rot problem? Pdf is good for print, it's consistant. But fails when display size other than big screen, especially e-ink displays that don't tend to be your standard A4.
- sjy 7y agoPDFs don't solve link rot. But in HTML, it's conventional to rely on links for stylesheets and sometimes even content (images, asynchronous DOM elements), so link rot is a bigger problem.
- j-pb 7y agoYeah for publishing you don't want content in links, but you can solve that with data URIs that embed images and other data directly into the link [1]. [1]:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_URI_scheme https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_URI_scheme
