How to create pdf files from Word files

[Missy]

In another version of Word (not sure which version, I
used it at my old job) I was able to automatically
create .pdf files from my word docs. The version I am
currently running does not allow this option. Does
anyone know which version or addon I would need to be
able to use this function?

I am currently runnin Word XP Prof

It's an add-on, usualy from Adobe.

you need to have a full version of acrobat installed,
this will come with an office addon that allows you to
save in .pdf format.

There are a number of other software vendors with cheaper or free products that
do the same thing. Look around the web a little. I use an unadvertised PDF writer that
came bundled with Adobe PhotoDeluxe 3. There is no mention of it in any documentation
but it gets installed with the photo editor.

Here is one...
