Hi Folks,


We've got a couple us users that have a need to convert Word, Excel,
etc. documents to PDF's and email them. Other than the fill blown
version of Adobe (which some key folks have) what are you using to do
this ?

Depends on what level you want it to happen. There are several cheap or free products available that emulates a printer creating PDF's instead of paper. That discards all meta-information though like links etc.

OpenOffice can export to PDF, but does not read _all_ Microsoft Office files and there may be layout differences.

It appears that Office 2007 have an add-in that allows saving as PDF.

I've found the Adobe PDF exporter to be quite good - it maintains hyperlinks etc.
