There are a few other PDF editors that are cheaper, but they don’t have the same features. PDF seems like something that has outlived its purpose. There has to be other document formats that provide a similar or better experience and prevents alteration.
PowerPDF or Kofax or whatever it’s called now was very close to parity if not exceed functionality for most office jobs.

Any document format could prevent alteration with the addition of a digital signature.
should be? yes. could be? if one of the big corpo's with money decides to spend it, yes. But don't assume 'there has to be one', it's not like file formats suddenly appear like a rare insect or something.
