- bondarchuk 4y agoA pdf is basically a digital sheet of paper and I like that. Download a pdf, you have it, you can print it (or not), and you can still look at it 50 years later. Download an interactive journal article: good luck downloading it in the first place. You can't print it. 10 years later you won't be able to open it.

Incentives? A change in expectations? Better technologies or formats? Something else?
