converting word docs to pdf

i tried to convert a word doc to a pdf and it says i need microsoft office professional edition 2003...is this really neccessary? i don't have this disk...

what happened is now that word doc comes out all funky and deleted everything 20 pages of stuff in there. how can i retrieve this and is there a good converter out there i can use? i guess i need to retreive it first and then convert it to pdf.

Primo didn't work for you...? It adds a virtual printer and that's it.

If you still need help, message me. If it's just two articles, then it's a favour.

See if it works with that.
Hope that helps

There is actually a PHP Function that lets you automatically convert Documents to PDF's if that's the route you were wanting to take as well.
