Use Microsoft Office 2007 SP2 as your PDF Writer

"Microsoft Office is releasing Service Pack SP2 that includes many PDF functionality"
Here’s a quick summary of upcoming changes in Microsoft Office 2007 SP2 with regards to document formats:

1 - When using SP2, customers will be able to open, edit and save documents using ODF and save documents into the XPS and PDF fixed formats from directly within the application without having to install any other code.

2 - Office 2007 customers will get an open to set OpenOffice as the default document format. That means when you hit Ctrl+S inside Microsoft Word, the first choice will be .odt.

3 - For reading and writing we can open office documents in MS Office SP2 like PDF.

4 - MS Office SP2 does not require any external plugin tools to save the documents in PDF form.

5 - Microsoft will release MS Office SP2 in first half 2009.

Well Microsoft Office 2007 still cannot read content from PDF files,so still recommended the Adobe PDF reader.
