Any fine PDF converter recommendations?
Hello,
I need a software tool for Windows that works as a PDF printer driver, I mean to stay among the real printers and to create PDF files from what I print to it ( must work with Excel, PowerPoint ).. I tried a few free ones but they all have some nags or annoying limitations, a commercial product would be acceptable as long as is not very expensive ( under $100 )... Any suggestions?

If your main interest is MS Office files, you can try OpenOffice.org - it is an alternative to MS Office which can read Office files, and can export to PDF

Microsoft has its own format Microsoft Image Document Writer - It exports the files to MS Document Imaging Format (*.mdi).
It is a convenient enough format to be used.

PDF Converter plugin by Microsoft for MSO2007. I really adore that. This plugin is FREE for all retail MSO users. Remember.....You will have to face OGA validation
