Actually, maybe don't use PDF at all. I keep having to help my Mum

Lots of the problems are with the free reader, adobe acrobat. It is
designed so that the user is kept very much in a straight-jacket which
is a problem when your Mum needs, for instance, things to be in 36 point
for her to be able to read things at all because she is nearly blind.

Just remembered alternativeto.net which is a rather useful site if
you're looking for a replacement for some app. Just saying as I'm sure
some folk will have heard of it, others won't.
