I long for the day PDF is finally expunged from the technical environment, in the meantime people still like to generate documents with it; and even with the variety of toolkits, frameworks and APIs, there's still a bit of knowledge needed to work with them efficiently.

I don't sell myself as a PDF expert, but my level of knowledge and experience is high enough that I can maintain and improve systems and workflows tightly bound to them. I keep it on my resume, but have no desire to mine that resource for fear of being the canary.
