Which has a built in "Publish to PDF" feature. No need for a third party PDF gadget.

CutePDF preserves the formatting of a Word file - and allows the text to be copied and pasted or searched. Some of the programs that covert to PDF create images of the document page rather than preserve the text capabilities.
