Conveting Word doc to FD or .PDF

[David W. Richardson]

I've got someone wanting to read one of my scripts, but they're asking it be submitted in either Final Draft or .PDF format. I use Microsoft Word, which does not have the ability to export the doc into either of these file formats.

Any way I can get this doc converted without having to buy either Final Draft or Adobe Acrobat?

We use this at work and I've had good luck with it. Once you install it, it shows up as a printer in Word, and you convert by "printing" to it.

Excellent Capt! That was exactly what I needed. Thanks!

Also you can do this online and they'll email it to you here.

if you're on a mac, you can "print" and select "save as PDF" from the prompt instead of actually printing it.

yes... it's quite the luxury that i think all mac users get used to. Sometimes at school on those good ol' dells... i forget this fact.
