Hi all,
I am in the process of switching whatever I can of my personal website, to pdf format, because it makes it a bit more difficult to steal my work and claim as their own.
I am slowly putting pdf's on the county site, because it reassures anyone who donates, that their work is still easy access and readable, but not so easy to copy and edit, etc. etc.
no problems at all with people being able to read them.
however, the downside is still the Pico search engine, so I am considering creating an index on the website, for any pdf files, so that Pico search will still include all names, by including my index of names.
pdf files also have the one quality of staying just the way you created them, and that is such an advantage when creating webpages.

Hi,
I posted this to the Shawano list and then thought "Why didn't I ask the
CC's???" -- duh...
The question is: how receptive are people to using data that is in a pdf
file? The feedback so far is 4 people saying it works for them and no
problems... I just don't want to put the data up in a pdf (like plats, descendancy
charts, etc.) and later find out that people aren't familiar with it and don't
have a Reader to view the contents... and I know the Pico Search Engine won't
be able to search for a specific word, but with plats, etc. it shouldn't
really matter at that point...
Anyone use pdf's on their site? anyone NOT USING them for a specific reason??
Thanks,
Anne
Shawano & Florence CC
