Maybe for books. I've seen only pdf and PostScript widely used for papers in academia.

Edit: ok my supervisor liked div but he was the only one I knew with this kind of taste

Div? Can you unpack your thoughts on that, as I haven't faced it yet?

I only know DJVU or deja vu format that's usually used for raw scans.

Djvu is also for books and similar.

I don't know about div format much, but I remember that mktex was producing it as a side effect
