I have tried downloading free software in order to save an Office 2003 word file as a pdf.  The software I downloaded, pdf creator was its name, screwed up my tool bars and home page.  I have now cleaned this up but now do not want to run into this again and am not sure what to do...

    You have received two replies suggesting other free software you could use to create PDFs. Alternatively, you can go to http://createpdf.adobe.com/ and use Adobe's free trial to convert your document. Unless you want to buy Acrobat, you're pretty much limited to these options. If you are wanting to do something other than create a PDF, then you need to let us know what that is.

    I've been using Bullzip PDF Printer for years without any problem on XP and Vista, in Office 2003/7/10

    PrimoPDF and CutePDF are also frequently recommended. There is also, I think, an option to use Acrobat online to create PDFs from simple documents.
