The issue *I* see is not with PDFs (or MSDSs), but with the inevitable
use of apostrophes (PDF's, MDSD's, '80's) by every other department
which ends up becoming so accepted across the company that the writers
are forced to use it even though it's incorrect! Next, it becomes
accepted, then correct, then the updation process happens where someone
changes all cases of PDFs to PDF's. 

It's a slippery slope, I tells ya!
