From the Editor: Redefining Your Purpose
Yet print is still a critical part of GPO's mission, we agreed. One big reason is the need to archive documents in a format that will be easily accessible decades from now.
"Why not PDFs saved on a CD?" ask the skeptics, forgetting that CDs are merely today's version of a 5-1⁄4˝ floppy. (Tried to read one of those lately?) And can you be absolutely sure future versions of Adobe Acrobat will still open the PDF files you're saving today? So print remains a crucial way of preserving government documents.
