PDFs don't do an excellent job of preserving formatting either. Over the years I've looked at lots of PDF formatted files that are quite different on screen and on paper.
- Finnucane 3y agoPretty much the whole book publishing industry runs on pdfs, and if they weren’t reliable, that would change.
- bediger4000 3y agoI'm also told that the publishing industry depends almost solely on "Word". If this dependence on "Word" is true, then I bet that if a PDF malfunctions, they just shrug their shoulders and tell themselves "that's just the way it is" ad move on. Because that's what you have to do when "Word" does something goofy, and "Word" is the Standard Word Processor.
