Notes for Microsoft Word users:

  • Converting from Microsoft Word format to PDF depends on which version of Word and which other software you have on your system.
    • For Word 2007 users, you can directly publish a copy of your Word document as a PDF file. However you may need to install the PDF add-in before you can use this built-in PDF functionality.
    • Prior to Word 2007 there was no built-in PDF functionality. You need a third-party utility. There are numerous available, many for free, such as PDF 995 and CutePDF Writer. You can also search on the Web or ask for advice in the Word Discussion Groups.

Notes for openoffice users:

  • Another possible way to produce PDF is to use an open source tool as OpenOffice. You will have to download and install a recent version of OpenOffice. OpenOffice is available at http://openoffice.org.  Use the template for openoffice documents
