[Lexicog] Kweyol dictionary: Why popular? How user-friendly?

[David Frank]

from David Frank:

I hadn't planned on spending my time this way this week, but you all got me
interested in putting something from our St. Lucian Kweyol dictionary on the
internet, and now I have a refinement of what I had previously announced. If
you are interested, go to www.saintluciancreole.org/dictionary.htm, and you
can follow the links from there to see the preface, introduction, spelling
guide and appendix, all in PDF format. What I have not done yet is put the
body of the dictionary into PDF format. But a sample entry can be seen in
the introduction.

I am not sure I have yet settled on the optimal tool for working with PDF,
but I am satisfied that I have made a lot of progress in a short span of
time, at no cost. Note that the text is searchable, using the search
function in Adobe Acrobat.

Now a new question regarding to electonic publishing is whether I should try
to make the pagination of a book in PDF format match the pagination of the
print version. That may be tricky to try to accomplish. What is normal and
expected in that regard?
