Good luck reading a scientific paper on your phone without lots of zooming and scrolling around.



Good luck reading a scientific paper on your phone period. Many journals are now making available the full text of papers in straight HTML (possibly only for users of participant libraries, I don't know) but that still sucks.

I mean, it's a small screen.


And that's somehow better in Word-generated scientific papers?


Actually, word produces PDFs which contain markup for screen readers, which make them much more accessible to blind people.
