First, loading PDFs is much slower than loading normal web pages since you have to load the PDF extension for your particular browser. Second, PDFs are Page Definition Format documents, typically taller than they are wide, and they don't format well on monitors, which for 99-44/100% of us are wider than they are tall. Third, since PDFs are known to carry malware, I no longer read them in my browser, and I disable loading PDFs in browsers on every machine I manage. PDFs are fine for documents which are intended to be printed out. The VIPRE- vs-MSE document is not something anyone would ever print out, they'll just look at it online. Why not put it in a true HTML page, with links explaining in detail what each line means? It could have been formatted to fit nicely in a wider-than-tall display and could have had more utility than just a PDF.
