i need clarity. do you mean print publishing or web publishing?
in terms of print, pdf is useful because authority (authorship) is unambiguous,
but also harder to port back into an e-form to allow positional analysis.
Viz web publishing, CB8 is fine but also CA7.1 is excellent because of its DHTML
capabilities. You can see sample of this at Convekta's "Chess Weekly" site.

The principle pdf publisher of Chess is Baburin's 'Chess Today'-- I am sure that
he has platform independence reason's for this, also the fact that he e-mails
his publication. Even so, the end-user must install fonts.
