I hate PDFs because I don’t like zooming in and out. I want all of the text and stuff to resize depending on my device and I don’t care what it looks like. Just give me the content! (Ok and also put it in a sans serif, though I’m digging Mediums font choices right now. Very serify.)
My church staff (two people) cooked up a guide for group leaders and sent out the PDF and I was upset. I didn’t want to zoom in and zoom out. Captain Picard didn’t do that, and I don’t want to either.
Feeling rather spicy, I clicked the “Open in Google Docs” button at the top of my gmail preview window thinking, “Why is this an option? They’re just going to take me to another PDF viewer exactly like the preview. Redundant much?”
But instead, a Google doc opened up with the text in Times New Roman. I was disgusted and I changed the whole thing to Proxima Nova. Then, I began to marvel–the whole text ready for my comments, edits, jokes, highlights, and consumption on phone, tablet, or desktop.
I didn’t know this was possible, and I flipped out and had to tell you. Thanks for listening.
I wonder if you can do this with images too. BRB.
