Google "pdf creator". PDF creator is a piece of very simple, yet very effective software (and it's 100% free, no hidden charges). Basically how it works is you type up a .doc or a .txt or whatever, then go to "File > Print". Under your printers select the one entitled "PDFCREATOR" and click print. It will "print" you a .pdf version of your document right to your desktop! Easy, simple, free, and exactly what you need!
