The readability of fonts in a PDF

["Nealon, Jessica" <Jessica -dot- Nealon -at- McKesson -dot- com>]

I've been researching fonts, specifically Verdana (sans serif) and Georgia
(serif).  The rumor is that these two fonts provide superior readability
online.  Does anyone 1) have any (or know where I can find) supporting
documentation on this, and 2) know if this superiority translates into a PDF
file?  That is, a PDF file that is used as a substitute for online help. 

Because I will be on vacation the rest of the week, I would like to thank in
advance anyone who chooses to respond.  This font-thing is my research
project to eventually (we all know how that goes!) make a case for some
changes to the current style guide.
