Creating PDF documents

Ever since Adobe released the free Adobe Reader, the PDF file format has become “the standard” for electronically sending documents. Unlike other formats, PDF files will look exactly the same when printed or viewed on different computers, operating systems, browsers, etc.

Unfortunately, Adobe is very proud of their Adobe Acrobat PDF creation software. And when I say “proud”, I mean “expensive”. I’m sure their software is very good, but for those of us who just have an occasional desire to create a pdf file, it’s hard to justify.

CutePDF

I found a FREE software utility called CutePDF that let’s you create pdf files as easily as you can print. When installed, it acts just like a printer. You can go into Microsoft Office or any other program that allows you to choose a printer, and “print” directly to a pdf file. It’s that easy.

The software is for Windows only.
