Post Free PDF creator ?
I want to make a downloadable PDF information file for a friends website, I don't want to buy Adobe, for obvious reasons, apart from the fact its the same price as the national debt of Somalia.

Any suggestions !?

Cheers

What is the current format? OpenOffice will do it for you if you already have that, and I though MS Office 2007 did too?
Otherwise, I used to use this years ago: clicky

MS Office 2007 can do it with a free download (part of an agreement with Adobe to get them to drop their court case, Microsoft agreed not to include XPS and PDF support in the shipped product, but provide it as a free download).

Crazy, OpenOffice can include PDF support, but MS can't include it in Office, because it is anti-competitive... :?
