Information vital to sales <==> findability on the internet.
HTML, unless you've done something really wrong, is already in
search-engine friendly format. I don't have tons of experience in
placing PDF out there on sites to be found, but from what I see it's not
a given that the PDF is indexable. If you do a google search you can
find some articles dealing with PDF and search engines, also PDF to HTML
converters. It's just another variable in the mix.
