Can anyone recommend a document converter
Right so i need to convert a few documents to be attach to emails but apparently they are the wrong type. So can anyone point me in the right direction for a free download and very simple to use application that can convert text documents into pdf etc.
I now await someone to show me something really simple and make me look a complete biff
Father Dougal: God Ted, I've heard about those cults. Everyone dressing in black and saying our Lord's going to come back and judge us all.
Father Ted: No...no Dougal, that's us. That's Catholicism you're talking about there

Re: Can anyone recommend a document converter
I'm on a Mac and I haven't tried it (I don't think?), so sorry if this is unhelpful, but, when I click on "file" then "print", there is a PDF option; "Save as PDF".

If you have Office 2007, Service pack 2 includes pdf generation. Originally Posted by YesItsMe

Re: Can anyone recommend a document converter
Open Office has an export to pdf function.
Thermite is the answer.
The question is irrelevant.

The best document converter I've ever used was a shredder from Tesco's.
