I always find myself need to save various documents and various electronic receipts as a pdf documents - it is very useful solution that works well for me. it is FREE on top of that... so, how can you set it up as well? how about hitting Print and selecting your pdf app to convert the doc to a pdf file? it is as simple as that...2 clicks and you are done...
there are many solutions out there that can help you convert almost any file to pdf.
Portable Document Format (PDF) is the standard for the secure and reliable distribution and exchange of electronic documents and forms around the world.
I use PDFCreator.
PDFCreator easily creates PDFs from any Windows program. Use it like a printer in Word, StarCalc or any other Windows application and you can find it here.
Another good product is CutePDF which can be found here.
that's it...once installed, look for the newlycreated printer - this is your pdf converter...
Cheers...
