1. Different functions

To put it simply, word is more editable, and PDF protects content, that is, more secure.

2. The difficulty of editing is different.

It is troublesome to edit PDF again.

WORD can be edited indefinitely.

As a preservation of data, PDF is better than WORD and can prevent embezzlement and modification (normally).

3. Different characteristics

The most important feature of PDF is "device-independent Device Independent". No matter what os or third-party software you have, the reading result is the same.
