If you run KDE then there are default printers that will output it in
PDF. I have never had a problem saving files from AbiWord or OpenOffice
into MS Word formatted documents. I just don't do it. I will send out
my docs in PDF more often than not. It helps prevent my docs getting
mucked with in redistribution, since most folks don't know how to muck
with PDFs
