Im trying to find software that will convert word and excel documents to PDF files. I have tried a couple of downloads off the net but they either ask you to upload your document and email you back with the conversion (I think not!) or other versions I've tried mark the page with "trial evaluation".
Does anyone know of any software? Failing that is there another way of doing it?
Any help greatfully appreaciated and I always press the thank you button for helpful replies!

Thanks so much! The top one is just what I am looking for. I've been looking for an hour for a proper free one. I've been messing around for months printing off quotes and then scanning them to make them into pdf files to send to my customers. Thanks again. I think the forums are just fantastic on this site!Matched betting proceeds so far: £505.000 -
PrimoPDF is the best. It installs as a 'printer' in Word, Excel and then you just select File -> Print and choose PrimoPDF as your printer0

Been using this for years in my business for lots of differing Word, Excel, Publisher documents. The good thing with this one is that is gets the file size right down whereas some are very big - a mb or even more.A retired senior partner, in own agency, with 40 years experience in property sales & new build.

Another vote for CutePDF, I've used it for several years now and recommended it to several others who've been happy with it.0

Here here. CutePDF is the way to go for what you need. I use it for most things, especially when my printer isn't connected.Looking forward to the future.0
