Depends on field. Some ~~meth~~ math and programming stuff exists only in PDF. Try find videos on Bounding Interval Hierarchy. At least there are decent videos on BSP trees
PDFs break my brain. It's 2024. Unless you truly intend for something to be primarily and only read in print why use PDF? And I know everybody is able to host HTML because usually everyone is grabbing these PDFs from a webpage.
Edit: down voters, convince me on valid uses of PDFs for things that aren't meant to be printed. At least list some. I'm aware this is an extreme opinion. It's one I've thought about a lot, but I just can't think of any. For things that are meant to be printed then I agree they're the best. Everything else I think HTML is better for because it can be resized arbitrarily and isn't bound to a specific layout. Also copying text from PDFs is bonkers.
Unless you want to force readers into reading in browser, you should use PDF.
If it's not something I expect people to read in a print format I'm absolutely willing to do that.
