As Andrew Millard previously pointed out, you can create PDFs directly from Word. Just click on Save As and you'll see the option to save a file as a PDF. The option to save files as PDFs was only introduced with later versions of Word and other Office applications. I have the ability to save PDFs using the 2010 version of MS Office. You can also save spreadsheets and Powerpoint presentations as PDFs. I'm not sure of the PDF availability in earlier editions. It certainly wasn't there in my old 2003 version. Debbie

Family Historian saves its reports in RTF format by default. It also has its own PDF writer.

I use the Share option in FTM which allows me to use different formats, including PDF and is quite easy to use.
