For PDF vs Epub, I have recently seen the combination of traits of both, in a very devastating way.
The characters were overlapping, no matter which reader I use, what margin/line/character spacing I set, until I adjusted the font size to two points smaller, and everything was right.
It turns out that whoever made the epub, turned every word into a single html element, with a fixed position!
So, it was like PDF in a sense that every thing has a position on the page. But it was like epub in the sense that everything's size can be changed (albeit within the "div" element). And the default size doesn't event work for the book.
I cringed so fiercely that I nearly deleted the book.
