Oh, yes you are right , with a 21 inches CRT, and 2048x1536 these PDF
documents are readable.
Have you tried it with 15 inches and 800x600
And i fully agree regarding the printing , 147 pages to be printed, again and
again, when updates are coming up (so many paper ...:( )
Remember
======that is an extract from an old Mail on that topic=====
The problem with pdf on screen is that the page layout is FIXED like it is
on paper. That is why it prints more consistantly , that page layout is
cast in stone. If you have a smaller screen or need larger text you have
to scroll _horezontally_ to read the document. To all intents and purposes
it becomes unreadable.
Under the same conditions html reformats to fit.
