Client requirements: Clients, vendors, or regulatory bodies often specify LaTeX Document as the required delivery format for image content.

Cloud storage efficiency: LaTeX Document's efficient encoding makes archival storage practical — important for large collections.

Universal viewer support: Nearly every operating system includes a built-in viewer for LaTeX Document, eliminating the need for third-party applications.
