Creating PDF documents from Word documents
If you have already created your word document then you don't need to scan the printed document, you can do the following :
Option 1
Open your document in Word
Save your document as a web page
File > Save As, choose Web Page (*.htm; *.html)
Exit word
Open Adobe Acrobet Reader
Start > PWF Programs > Utilities > Adobe Acrobat
Open your newly created web page in Acrobat Reader
File > Open
Change Files of type: from Adobe PDG Files (*.pdf) to All files (*.*)
Select your document from its saved location
A window entitled 'Download Status' will open giving you information about the conversion process from Word to PDF, once converted your document will open in Acrobat Reader.
Please note that this method will include file details in the header & footer of the PDF document.
Save your document
Option 2

This method envolves creating a postscript file which is then converted to PDF format using Acrobat Distiller.

Open your document in Word
Create a postscript file
File > Print, tick the Print to file option in the Print dialogue box and click ok
Name your file and choose a location to save. Your document will be saved with a PRN extension
Exit Word
Open Adobe Acrobat Distiller
Start > PWF Programs > Utilities > Adobe Acrobat Distiller
Open your saved PRN file
Choose a location to save the PDF document
ALWAYS CHECK THE CONTENT OF THE CONVERTED DOCUMENT
