I live in a world where I have to interact with non-technical people, and I need to produce documents that are editable by those non-technical people.

Non-technical people can take a document produced by pages, MS Word, and OO Writer, and load them up, make changes and send them back. The cloud has not yet caught up with my part of the industry I work in.

I'd love to be able to work in Markdown (or even groff) and then feed that to something to produce nice looking documents - in the end I use word, because its the easiest way to get passed the post. PDF is my most favored document interchange format, provided that edibility is not a prime desire.

What I'd love is a word processor, that allows me to use PDF as the prime document format for saving, editing, etc.

Come on, Baader-Meinhof! I literally just seconds ago learned the term "faulty diction", and then you throw in my face an editability/edibility mixup.

Well, PDFs don't taste very good, either.
