A PDF portfolio seems to be pretty much tar/zip implemented in PDF. This
is a great leap forward. Before, Adobe had to implement their own
security holes into PDF, now they get to take advantage of security
holes in every other application installed on your computer!

This was probably done in response to PDF getting beaten by Java to the
#1 spot for successful exploits.
