The title is great, but how do I actully go about doing this on a PC? It was
a print option in word, and now I'm not sure what to do.

There is no function in Word to do this. You need a third party application,
such as Adobe Acrobat or one of its cheaper clones to produce pdf output.
There are some alternatives linked from the favourites page of my web site.

I have read all the posts about converting Microsoft Office 2003 Word
documents into .pdfs. Does anyone have a feel for which free 3rd party
software is the best for doing this?

Define *best*.
I use Acrobat Pro but not everyone wants to spend the money for it. I've
been recommending PrimoPDF to other newsletter editors so they can easily
share their newsletters with more people and keep the cost of postage down.
Go to www.primopdf.com. Please note - if you have a dial-up connection, it's
going to take forever. It's a 10MB download.

This was the best advice...thanks for that Chuck. Although I have Adobe on my
system, it still didnt allow me to convert a word document...don't know why.
So I have downloaded the file according to your web address and "Hey Presto !"

You have Adobe what? Adobe Reader does not convert files - it only reads
..pdf files. Just a viewer.

Okay. And just so you know, Acrobat cannot convert to Word. You need other
software for that.

John, If you aren't ready to lay out several hundred dollars for Adobe
Acrobat (not the Reader), you can try either of these:
http://www.win2pdf.com or http://www.primopdf.com

As stated earlier, I downloaded the programme from the win2pdf site, which
is also stated in a previous comment, and just rgistered it as personal use
when it asks you to pay for it. (It gives you an option). Since then i have
emailed numerous word documents with no problems. I did have a word programme
that had this feature on it automatically, but on this version it seems to
have diapperaed from the tool bar.

Is there an answer here?

Sure. File - Save As, and set Save as type: to Rich Text Format (*.RTF).

RTF <> PDF. But my point was that this post merely repeated the question and
did not provide an answer.

Egad. I read that as rtf!
Sheesh.
They don't say what version of Word they're using. If it's Word 2007 and
they installed the free XPS/PDF, then choose File - Save As - PDF or XPS.
If it's pre-Word 2007, then PDF support isn't part of Word or Office. They
need Adobe Acrobat or something with similar functionality.
