I still tend to agree with fastaguy88, PDF's are still my preferred format for reading science data, even on my digital devices. HTML data just doesn't have the font quality, layout rendering, and ability to ensure all the appropriate data is saved without requiring some remote server (and login!). My preferred digital device is a 12" iPad Pro as it shows the pdf in native 8 1/2 by 11 size. That makes me happy! Change the device form to match PDF.


Yes, completely agree. Scientific articles on a phone are terrible--open the PDF and zoom/scroll around? You know exactly what to do and how it works.
