If the requester asks for the information in a particular form, and you can reasonably easily supply it in that form, then your duty to be helpful to the requester suggests you should supply it as requested.

You should remember however that some digital data formats can contain information that is not visible but can still be extracted, so you must take care not to supply information inadvertently that you should not provide. For this reason (and others), some FoI officers make a habit of supplying information in PDF format, even though this makes it harder for the requester to make use of the information.
