I have been trying to convert a Word doc to a pdf doc. In WordPerfect all I
have to do is select "publish to pdf" in the "file" drop down menu. There is
no such choice in Word, and when I try to open the file using Adobe Acrobat
Writer it won't read the Word file, so how am I supposed to convert the file
to pdf?

Pat,

Just print the file (use the FilePrint method), and select Acrobat
PDFWriter as your printer.

Remember that not all versions of Adobe work with all versions of Word. I
know Adobe Acrobat 4 will work with Office 2000, but it will not work with
XP. You must upgrade to Adobe Acrobat 5. I am not sure about Office 2003. I
have been told AA5 will work with Ofc2003. ~ivcchelpdesk

Word has no ability to write PDF files without the use of third party
software. Some examples are linked from the favourites page of my web site
