Best word to pdf program

[Harleymama]

I have MS Office Student and Teacher Edition 2003, and Adobe Acrobe 6 reader.
What would be the best program/software to allow me to convert this
program's word, excel, etc. to PDF?

The best (and most expensive) is Adobe Acrobat 6
Professional. There are no charge varieties that do well:
Win2PDF at: http://www.win2pdf.com This one I have used on
and off over the past three years.
Another: http://www.pdfpdf.com/

OpenOffice (http://www.openoffice.org) is free[0], Free[1], compatible
with MS Office, and has native support for saving to PDF - no
additional software required.

How is this comment helping anyone. If you want to push OpenOffice this is
not the way!

Why on earth not? It's a very good solution to the OP's question.

Indeed, I try to be very careful when choosing who and what to reply.

I only mention OOo when it is doing something that MSO cannot, or when
the OP is asking something that is not (legally) possible (like where
can one download MS Office for free). Doing something illegal hurts
Microsofts' interests and is a Bad Thing. I consider this unethical so
I want to prevent people from dong that.
Of course, people switching to OpenOffice hurts MS more than illegal
copies and is comercially a Very Bad Thing. But that is not my problem.
