.doc conversion to .pdf.....

[personal profile] tabaqui 2013-01-30 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
I have Word 2002, and am trying to convert .doc files to .pdf format. I thought i could do it via google.docs, by uploading a .doc file and then dl'ing it as a .pdf. But sadly, i only get the option to dl as a .doc.

(When you create a file in google.docs, you get the option to dl it in several formats, .pdf included.)

So - anybody have a .doc to .pdf converter that they use and like? Preferably a free one, as i'm kinda broke.

Thanks!

I'd suggest CutePDF. It's teeny tiny and installs as a printer. Then you can use the print button to convert to PDF. Never had any problems with it.

I don't actually have a printer - it's not going to go nuts trying to find one or anything is it?

No no. It's just that it sets itself up as though it were a printer. So instead of the document printing, it gets PDFed to your desktop. I used it for PDFing my thesis (at the suggestion of the binding place) and it worked a treat.

Can't you just go File-->Export as a .pdf?

Nope. You just don't get that option, apparently, when the file is a Word .doc. I dunno what's up with that.

It's more intended for converting to (or between) ebook formats, but Calibre is capable of PDF as an output format as well as an input.

[personal profile] tabaqui 2013-01-30 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
Is that a free program? I'll probably dl/bookmark just because some people have wanted ebook files, too. Thanks!

Re: .doc conversion to .pdf.....

Yes, it is. I've been squeeing over it lately to anyone who will listen because I can put all the research documents I'm gathering for my Master's on my Kindle and mark them up just as if they were native MOBI files.
