            Then I wouldn't work with those shops since they are already
    out of date, and just getting more so every day. Why support them if
    they aren't going to support you and the "modern age"?

            Which makes a lot of sense if you going to work with original
    documents, and is also another reason to NOT work with these people
    if they can't take PDF. PDF avoids ALL of the problems that you site
    when working from originals!
