It's starting to happen.  In my neck of the woods, lawyers, engineers 
anbd architects have a digital certificate and we can digitally sign 
PDFs.  This makes sure that our plans or contracts have not been 
tampered with after we were finished them.

See above.  Getting the original AutoCAD or Word file could allow you to

Also, until they make A-sized ipads, reading plans in .PDF format will 
not be popular on a construction site or shop floor.
