They are often trying to save paper. Some conferences (and sometimes
even some journals) set a maximum limit of pages for submitted papers.
Don't they write them in Latex and then generate the PDF? You'd think
it'd be trivial to generate the microscope version to send off to those
who expect it, and then generate a proper one for actual reading. This
isn't exactly 1970 typewriter-era, after all.
