For anyone considering using PDF as a format for moving their
documents onto the Web, an alternative to be considered is RTC,
rich-text-compressed. Our RTC viewer is far superior to Adobe's
Acrobat in that it is an order of magnitude smaller than Adobe's
PDF viewer, it supports http-hyperlinks to other documents, the
file size is considerably smaller (averaging 20-30k with images),
and can be used with any word-processor capable of saving files to
RTF format. Check out our home pages for more information.
