First choice would be hard copy.

Second would be plain ASCII if text only.

If it has mixed text/images second would be HTML if I'm reading it 
online or PDF if I'm going to print it.

Avoid proprietary formats requiring purchase of a specific device.

(I believe that the Kindle and similar will display PDF without too much 
trouble, but they are really intended for a proprietary format unique to 
Kindle.  Kindle now has some competitors which also have unique 
proprietary formats, deliberately incompatible with anything else.)

Please don't do that.

Kindle doesn't display color, by the way.
