install adobe acrobat
save as pdf.
use openoffice .. it has a built in "export to pdf" function
otherwise, you'll probably have to install some adobe crap, which you have to buy
Easy. Google "PDF Creator". You'll be able to download a free/share/trial of a thing that lets you print frmo Word/other MS Office apps to a PDF file.
Adobe Acrobat sucks.
Install CutePDF. You have it as a printer, and just print any document to CutePDF instead of an actual printer.
Free!

Will try all options...
you probably have free adobe acrobat READER.
The version to create PDFs is like $250.
Screw that. Its a bloated beast anyway.
CutePDF represent. Our whole organisation has it.
Trying hitting print, and see if one of your choices (of printer) is adobe acrobat.
Ah! Now I understand. I'm getting 5 pdf docs created for free. Then will look into cutepdf... Cheers Sheik.
Hey Jetgirl - none of my printers is adobe acrobat.

Sheik had the right info then....
wow i was trying to do this yesterday
Oh fuck. It's talking so LONG. Damn trials. Can i email it to someone to convert and then email it back??? Does it take a long time usually??
It's all sorted now. Thank you!
I'm using the imaginatively named PDF Creator. Works as a printer driver.
Seems fine so far.
open office is the best
