The Emacs help and info and manpage buffers are
probably more interactive and fast to deal with
from and with Emacs. PDFs are more like to
print huge manuals free of charge at your
school or work so you can bring some reading
when you travel by train :)

The help system is for the impatient
programmers. Info-mode is for the real
engineers :)
