Font availability
PDF is one of the very few text formats where the file includes the fonts so that it looks identical on all platforms.
Text can be rasterised before distribution (turned into a bitmap), which will ensure that text looks the same on all platforms, but a bitmap of a text is usually not a good option excapt except for titles and perhaps buttons.
Consider also that on different platforms it may be ''desirable'' to have the text look different, for example to match a default system font.
