Agreed. PDF is a terrible format for reading on a device because it is a represenation of a printed page, in other words, fixed.imo, yes they should. But pointing out the shortcomings of the PDF format and refusing to accept people's thoughts that the only options are hardcopy, pdf, and DDB is genuous. What is disingenuous to me is numerous people refusal to accept that digital does not mean PDF, and that PDF is the only digital format that is possible.
I am currently dealing with a vendor whose documents are all A3 landscape 2 column pdfs. Reading those on a computer screen sucks. You have to keep scrolling down, then right and up, then down, then left and down.
There are much better formats for reading words on variable-sized display screens. For example, the one we are using right now - DHTML.
