1526, Especially high-end information sites need to be quick-find sites

If it's really numerous pages documents, think 10 pages and up, provide PDF files. No one likes reading that much on a website.
Perhaps it's an idea to just provide the first paragraph followed by a "Read more" link that leads to either a PDF doc or the full text.
If you're going for putting the entire text online, break it up in pages. That way you can easily pick up where you left if you had to quit reading (and reduce load times).
Do add some pictures if you can, but around the text (not in the text).
If the text looks like legal texts, you can be sure people will find it just as boring (even if the content is actually interesting).
