hi leonard

i'm mainly thinking of

- reflowing based on the screen size and proportions.
- adapting the text size to the reader's needs

basically everything that makes it comfortable to read text on a screen
based device...
(for content with needs that are in between the standardised epub shown
by an e-reader and the control freak that is the pdf... a "simple"
example are programming books).

of course, if the goal of the editable pdf is to make the file tweakable
at the print stage (as suggested by greg), then my concerns can be
safely ignored.
(and, indeed, this at least at some degree already possible)

ciao
a.l.e
