I wasn't familiar with pgf at all. we are usually limited by what publishers will accept in terms of formats, which is usually pdf, eps, png or tiff where we publish.
for other features in pdf, we did not use any for these manuscripts, but sometimes I use some adobe specific javascript for making interactive features in course notes(using acrotex). some of those do not work well in any other browser.
