Also, in ten years you won't be able to read any of today's Works, Word, or Wordpro files. Odds are you will be able to decipher both PDF and RTF if you can still read the medium.

I started this discussion and suggested PDF files, but I really meant any electronic format for POMONA. I think the advantage of PDF is that it is independent of type of computer or operating system. PDF readers are available for most any computer system, PC, Macintosh, Unix, etc.

I'm wondering why PDF is significantly better than just plain Works, Word,
Wordpro or even RTF. I myself wouldn't need to have the neat double columns
and unique scrolling ability of PDF, regular wordprocessor documents are
searchable also. Another advantage of computer copies of Pomona is storage
space, I have quite a few Pomonas and not a lot of space anymore to store
them.
