When Adobe introduced PDF files, people breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, you could send and receive files in a format that everyone could read with the free downloaded Acrobat Reader. One downside was that you could only convert your work to PDF by buying the expensive Acrobat program. Enter Solid Converter PDF, an affordable program that allows you to create PDFs from Microsoft Word.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Step1
Install Solid Converter PDF from the Solid Documents website. You can choose between the Standard and Professional options. The Professional version brings more tools and allows you to work in more programs.
Step2
Realize that the quickest way to create PDFs from Word is by using the Solid Converter plug-in. The program will place a "Create PDF" button on your toolbar in Word. If you can't see it, try going to "View" and clicking "Toolbars." Make certain there is a checkbox next to "Solid Converter PDF."
Step3
Open the file in Word that you want to turn into a PDF. When you are finished with the document, click the "Create PDF" button on your tool bar. A pop-up box opens that allows you to name and save your PDF.
Step4
Select any specific file options you want before saving. You can set a password, apply document information to the file or open the converted file after conversion.
Step5
Click the "Create" button, and have a PDF file that you can send through email or post on a website for easy viewing.
