    Works perfectly, but is hidden, you have to select from the Print... menu. Would have given it 10/10 but for the sneeky Softonic Downloader, and the complete lack of and explanation or Help with this program. Pros: Make perfect .pdf file from Word .docNeed to select 'FreePDF' as the printer from the Print... window in Word. Then, on pressing OK the FreePDF program will (finally!) open and offer you options as to what to do with the 'pdf' file it will then create.
