Adamant .pdfs have no restrictions on copy/paste.If the tools are there to create any document desired, then it strikes me as a thin argument at best. If you want a plain, 2 column, easily printable document, you can make one in under a minute. If someone is incapable of doing so, then they're extremely unlikely to be part of the computer-literate segment that buys .pdfs.The fact of the matter is that text and images together engage the reader more than just text almost all of the time. Once you get past 10 pages, it's desireable to break up the text. Everyone will, of course, post to say how they're not like that, but given that this is the same hobby that forced SJG to change the cover of GURPS4, Forgive me for believing that this is not wholly representative.</blockquote>
