When you read a book, how often do you change the contents? If you are
publishing something, the content is generally fixed. PDF is quite useful
for that. There are some situations, where the structure must also be
retained, where epub is not suitable. I have read some technical books in
epub that left me wondering where something was. The same book in PDF is
laid out exactly as the paper version would be.
That's why PDF is a "published" format and not an "editable" format.
