A friend of mine has some documents in M. S. Word and has not any scanner
or any advanced packages, how can he make PDF file and/or HTML file out of it, for his project.

What are different way to do it?

Adobe writer? Print Screen?

Could you give some guidance step by step, with all available packages ? Thanks.

I have word 2010.
You can save as pdf or html any file.

I am still using 2003 M S Office package, and had done a lot in Autocad
and i think, if you have Adobe writer that can do too. ( right? )

But he does not have it, in India.

Any other third party software on net, famous one can do it?

I generally print the paper, scan it and save as a pdf file, but he does not have a scanner.

:(

does anyone have used any famous such package from here, and familiar?

If he has MS Word installed then he can use http://www.cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/Writer.asp . This installs as a print driver and all you have to do is to File -> Print and choose pdf as the output.

Long back I used to use CutePDF. THat worked ok.
I think it is to be paid for.

Your list has some strong editor's choice programs. Should try those out. Cnet is a reliable site.

Along the same lines, we can use PDFCreator

I also use cutepdf and it works very well. It is free software. You can convert any type of document to pdf format.
