gollark: For scanned documents it makes sense, but not for new content you're producing electronically.
gollark: HTML can be edited easily, be somewhat interactive, and doesn't force you to have *pages*.
gollark: PDFs are basically just images which can have selectable text layers or something. Very annoying to do anything with.
gollark: Probably somewhat controversial opinion: (X)HTML is a much better format for random documents like that than PDFs.
gollark: I should probably do more backups to be honest. And get more disk space.
