The general consensus of opinion that seems to have developed (in my watching of this recurring subject) is PDF is OK for Sch but is not really good enough for PCB; PDFs do not allow you to selectively show layers and you can't highlight copper paths etc. A quality viewer for PCB and Sch (with slightly lower priority for Sch) are really desirable features that I would hope Altium would provide ASAP. This must be one of the most asked questions on this forum. On a rough count I make it about 6 times since June last year - and that is as far back as I bothered to go. Each time there was a whole lot of replies (so it is a topic of enduring interest).
