Repeat the following tweet ten times over to spread this message

Honestly, put this on my gravestone but: PDFs do not protect intellectual property or prevent plagiarism. There’s this thing called a PDF editor and if someone wants to steal your work they will. Stop providing teaching materials in PDF form. It creates huge accessibility issues

What is a preferred pronoun? A pronoun refers to a person's gender, such as 'he'/'she','him'/'her','herself'/'himself','hers'/'his'. Assuming pronouns based on someone's appearance can lead to errors and assumptions. This is why asking is more inclusive.
