I don't have a PDF Writer on my PC in the office, but i need to send a PDF of my Word doc so that someone on an Apple Mac can use it.
Could anyone change a small Word doc into a PDF for me please?
Also i can't download the freebes from the net because of the bloody firewall.

thanks
dj

If they've got an Apple Mac (one from the last 3 years anyway), then they will be able to open the Word file fine, even if they haven't got MS Office, as the Mac's own 'text editor' (TextEdit), opens Word files along with a few other formats.

Yes, search for PDF995. There are 2 files to download and then you are away. Use it as a virtual printer (print to file). Free and very good.
