PageMaker for advertising material.
OpenDocument (LibreOffice) for public documents.
For internal documents I'm using plain text files when placed in source directories and HTML otherwise (to be accessible from the intranet).

Given its status as "the" web-based Portable Document Format...

You are writing using a PDF editor?

You are writing using an HTML editor?

Yes, ahem no, I'm typing.
An finally I'm printing to a PDF.

And this is about formats, not tools!

I think that the question is a bit ambiguous concerning "technical content"...
We use PDF as a "delivery" format for user guides
so I am missing PDF in the list (as OG pointed out)
but for source code documentation I am tempted to use .chm ...

Sorry, lad, but he's right:
PDF is a presentation format. Once upon a time, a secure one so you could post your stuff and NOT have it edited by some cretin or manager.

Any open document format editor can export as PDF. Perhaps that is the reason it is not listed explicitly?

I prefer the quintessential .readme file type.

That's not other, but is text.

You can say the same about HTML.
|
|
|
|
|
A .readme file is just a text file with a different extension.
Sure, a HTML file can be opened with a text editor, but it's not exactly the same as you'd make more sense of it by viewing it with a browser.

He's just clutching at straws now. Next he'll say a jpg file is just a sequential array of bytes, which it is but you know...
