Is it better to PDF or DOC?

Want to send my resume to a few alums to pass it on. But I'd also value their comments. Which form should I send it in?

I'm leaning towards pdf is because it looks nicer and the reason why I dont think sending it in .doc will help is because it's unlikely that the alums will actually go to Microsoft Word and use the Comment feature to go over it line by line for me.

They'd most likely just give a 1-2 line feedback.

Thoughts?

I do PDF as much as possible, makes sure none of the formatting gets messed up, it prints correctly... etc.
