That word "support" does a lot of heavy lifting there. A bit like in "Email supports end to end encryption".

You are not wrong, but if you had to bet your life on somebody being able to get the information and you don't know how they are going to view that PDF would you do it?

I've never bothered to look into a TeX based way to do this; is it something that can be done with TikZ/PGF?
PDF supports being printed out onto paper.
