Screen based interfaces, which is part of the reason that PDF tends to
work fairly well, at least in my context.

I agree entirely. The amount of detail and type of documentation
depends entirely on the situation. For really small things or things
that have to be delivered in a hurry, I deliver very little
"documentation" if possible.

I'm curious as to what the situation is that lead you to ask? Is
someone pushing a certain type of documentation on you?
