In my opinion PDF is currently the clear winner over HTML in both the ability to produce readable documents and the ability to display readable documents in the way that the author wants them to display.

Why can can't we start with RDF documents, and then generate HTML, PDF, Latex etc.. documents from base RDF documents?

I can't believe we don't do this, circa., 2014.

Why do we work unproductively with HTML, PDF, Latex etc.. when they can all be generated from RDF documents?

The steps should be:

1. Create an RDF Document
2. Generate HTML, PDF, Latex etc.. from the RDF document
3. Deliver a bundle comprised of RDF, HTML, PDF, Latex, or whatever the conference seeks -- if conferences in question are associated with Linked Open Data and the Semantic Web they should look themselves in the mirror when rejecting this kind of loosely-coupled bundle.
