Hi all,

I'd like to hear from people who have strong
opinions about how to design documents so
they look good in PDF (when viewed primarily
on screen).

For example, an important design consideration
is page size. Smaller pages result in shorter
line lengths and paragraphs; this usually
increases on-screen readability.

In your opinion, what other design choices
improve the appearance and readability of PDFs?

Cheers,

Rowena
