I voted for ePub but not because it is my favorite necessarily-- it is the format preferred by my favorite reader Wink

Also, OP didn't vote Undecided

Well, I voted for PDF, mostly because it's the one i'm must used to.

But because i don't really a favorite , that's why i started this thread in the 1st place.

DjVu turns out to get less space than PDF, and because of that i like it too.
And ePUB is good for when i don't care about "pages". And it is the most size-friendly of all.

I use mobi, because amazon kindle is cheap and works great.

My Sony Reader uses .epub as it's preference, but it can also use .pdf. I don't personally care.

PDF, just for the fact that it's the only format I ever used, and for the fact that Apache Open Office/Libreoffice supports it.

People usually like PDF because it's compatible with most readers but I personally like epub.

I like epub because it's more compatible with my system then pdf, but pdf is my second choice.

Epub is the favored format, but only because it is the easiest to use with my tablet's reader app. Regardless, the format matters little as long as the app that displays it is decent.
