But you can be sent PDF by a friend, who has a virus, unknown to him, which alters PDFs with a certain javscript payload...
thats why I use okular as default. I rarely take files from friends :-)
Ah, but that's one of the good uses of PDF. I send more than receive, and it is a good interchange format because the recipient will see it exactly the same way as I create them, no matter what operating system the different parties use. I have to send receipts with tables. Previously I used html. Now I use PDF, because some people had problems reading html mail (no, not because it was not allowed, but because of mail client bad rendering). When I have to send, say, a spreadsheet, I have to save it in different formats and send them all, hoping that they can at least open one. (I miss a functionality in LO to do a simultaneous save in different formats, keeping the native LO one as master, automatically) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
