PDFs are ass. I do not need to print this. Even then, HTML can be printed. Like imagine if the rest of this Lemmy comment was in a PDF... Why the fuck would I do that? That's what this article feels like. permalink fedilink source parent [–] jayands@lemmy.world 1 point 4 months ago (1 child) Yeah, give me a raw TeX file, or at least a plain Markdown document.
