PDF has been a very popular method of distribution of documents so as not to allow the recipient from editing and changing the document. There are many stand alone programs available, which can covert an office document into a pdf document.
Earlier, there used to be a built in feature in MS Office 2007, which allowed users to save the document in pdf format. But due to dispute with Adobe, the creator of the pdf concept, Microsoft had removed that feature from Office suite.
But now, Microsoft has again started to bundle the same feature in the form of a add-on utility, which you can download from the Office 2007 download center, but you have to have a genuine copy of Office because the download checks it before any installation.
