I have seen in OpenOffice that I can directly save the document that I have made into a PDF file. They have given an option at the top for this job.
Can I convert or save my Microsoft Word file (.doc) directly into a PDF file?

Install the "Save As PDF and XPS" add-in (see 2007 Microsoft Office Add-in: Microsoft Save as PDF or XPS).
Click the download button, and follow the prompts to install the software. All the free product help is in Free Word to PDF Creator.
You can use PDFCreator or CutePDF Writer to create printers which will effectively convert anything to PDF.
There are some drawbacks to many of the suggested answers on this page:
If you have Office on the machine, you can use COM to script it to save as a PDF. Here's code in .NET

In Mac OS X, pull down the File
menu, select Print...
and click on PDF
to save a PDF file. You can do this from any document-based application, including Office.
It depends on your version, but I think in the latest version under Windows 7 you go to menu Save and then you select the format PDF.
