Doc -> Pdf

Hey, Does anyone know of a plugin for MSWord that lets me convert documents to PDF? Freeware if possible! Used Google, most are shareware. Any suggestions?

Don't know of any plugin

there are anynumber of free pdf printers - you print to pdf

pdfcreator (right click on doc to print too)
pdf995 - adware - but free
dial.de - huge down load 250MB but has a pdf printer in it

or

use openoffice to open the doc and save as pdf.

the next version of M$office will support generating pfds if you pay for it, after that functionality has been available free for years.

I used to use PDFCreator before I got OpenOffice. Does the job very well.
