Why PDF for the data format instead of, say, CSV?
- mjamil 5mo agoI’m speculating it’s because most phones know how to natively handle PDFs (and not CSVs).
- justbees 5mo agoI actually ended up with pdf because I could brand it and my parents (who are in their 70s) understood it better than seeing a CSV. That was REALLY throwing them off. We went through rounds and rounds with the sharing. So instead they just get a little image that they can import and then all the data is embedded in the pdf along with tiny images, but it just looks like a little thumbnail file.
