Publishing as a PDF loses what makes OneNote great: the tabbed sections and
other formatting. Converting to PDF just flattens everything into a wall of
text that's intimidating to read.
Printing your notes on sheets of paper also flattens everything into a
stack of dead trees that's equally intimidating to read. If the final
result is a stack of paper, does it really matter if the flattening
happens during export or during printing?
I want to publish an entire notebook in a
shared location so that other people can reference it and experience exactly
like I do--with tabs.
If your aim is for other people to have *exactly* the same experience as
you do, you need to tell them to get OneNote as well. You can then have
a shared notebook, or publish your notebook as a package which the other
people can then unpack and use as their own copy of the notebook.
If a similar, read-only experience is acceptable, check out the OneNote
Web Exporter, at
http://www.codeplex.com/ONWebber - it'll publish your
entire notebook as a collection of linked html files that you can view
in a browser.
