One thing I really like about PDF images is that they are scalable. You can zoom in and really see the details - even on a laptop. It is a great way to put B-sized schematics on line. I can't imagine how I'd do that with HTML or anything else for that matter.
Happy Friday from a snowy Salt Lake City!
