Printing to PDF

[Gilbo]

What do you guys use to enable printing to PDF for a computer.

I'd like a free solution. CutePDF has been recommended.

I settled on bioPDF. Don't remember exactly why now though it was feature related. I think it was the 64-bit OS, Citrix/TS support and watermark option.

Someone here mentioned cutepdf and I have used it ever sense, easy to use and just does the job.

PDFCreator
I forget how I found it. But it gets a plus for being open source.
I mostly use it to print my online bills to pdf for archiving.

At work, and if printing out of Office 2007, then I just use the "Save As PDF" option, otherwise CutePDF.

At home, "pstopdf".

PS. For the Save As PDF option in Office 2007 see:

I do it with OpenOffice, myself. Most of my coworkers use PDF995.

I'm mostly using it for storing receipts from online bill payments, etc., so I can't use OpenOffice's built in PDF export.

I've been using CutePDF but I'll try PDFCreator. I prefer Open Source options when possible.


I can definitely recommend CutePDF though. Functions as advertised. It uses the Open Source Ghost Script for its functionality, which is a separate installation.

I was deploying PDFCreator more than 4 years ago. It seemed pretty good back then, so given its improvements since, I have no reason to doubt its efficacy now.

I still have utilities to print to TIF etc, so I haven't needed a standalone PDF printer driver for quite some time.
