That's true, but you can also take the *.docs too. The problem with taking
an image is that Word uses the printer parameters it finds by interrogating
the printer driver to determine the page layout appropriate for a particular
printer. Every printer is different, so there is a high probability that if
you create a print file using a different printer (including the image
writer), the actual layout of the printed document may be different than you
intend. So the best solution is to use the printer driver for the printer
you are going to be using. You can still print to file, but the document
will have the expected layout.

maybe you dont use them much - the whole point of pdf/image printers is it
prints to a file (instead of the printer you dont have) - you can then
take the file to where there is a printer
