    Use OpenOffice to open your Word document and then save it as pdf.

    RE: buy acrobat from adobe

    Not buying it, I already have it at work, but am at home. Documnet is 15mb and wont email from my work account where the max attachment size is 8mb, need to send as one doc. It's a book chapter that I was meant to have in by midnight.

    If you are using office 2007 there is a free add in to enable save or email as pdf.
