| 298618 | 2004-12-01 07:41:00 | Is it possible to convert a MS Word document to a PDF file? I have Adobe Acrobat 5.0 (not the free Reader), and it advises me to print using Adobe Distiller (to get a PDF file made), but this does not work. Other than taking a screen shot, or printing on paper and scanning, is there a more efficient way to get a PDF from a .doc ? Thanks |

| 298619 | 2004-12-01 07:48:00 | AFAIK there's an app called PDF Workshop which basically installs itself as a Printer Driver you "print" to and it outputs it as a file. Google is your friend :-) Chill. |

| 298624 | 2004-12-01 08:50:00 | Hey Chill - - did not know what AFAIK was, so Googled it: "What is AFAIK? It's an acronym for As Far As I Know" Yep, Google is your friend. :) :) |

Even if you use Word as your editor, keep OO installed, it'll open any MS Doc and output it to a very tidy PDF with the toolbar button. Worth it just for that. |
