Which all brings up an interesting point. Traditionally when logotypes, special type-based identifiers, and other fixed-design graphics are created for distribution to clients as part of their corporate ID and marketing programs, and from there, the client's customers, et al, art has been created in Illustrator, and the "final" art uses fonts converted to outlines.

Is providing art as PDFs a "better" way to provide this art? Do you see a downside (other than some end-users possibly being unable to handle PDF graphics for inclusion in their workflows)?
