*What started this recent bit of piracy is me needing to create a couple of pdf documents. I'm in Lake Louise for a few days enjoying the slopes and ski bunnies and one of the guys I'm here with wanted copies of the hill/lift maps I've created in visio. He doesn't have visio so I offered to make him a pdf version. I thought I had installed adobe acrobat on my new pc but nope, must have missed it. No big deal, or so I thought, I'll just do the honorable thing and order it online and download it and a new keycode. Well fuck me with a 4x4.....those dirty bastards want $450 usd for the full package or $300 for the cheep version. I'm sorry but I'm prepared to do the right thing and pay for software I regularly use but $450 is a little steep especially considering that I can get a free licensed/legit verson in the new year when I'm back at work. On a whim I go to twomoos and search for "adobe writer" and it returns a link for a program called DeskPDF, which I can legitimately download for free. Think its too good to be true but download it and sure as shit it creates PDF files just fine. I scan my system and there's no new ad/spyware found, no shitty ads embedded in the document. Whats the catch?[/QUOTE]
I found a program called Cute PDF writer. It installs as a printer on your system. If you want to print a document as a PDF, just select this "printer", and you now have a PDF file. It works quite well.
