I guess what I am saying is.. Can I install the utility to create Word to pdf without installing the full version of Adobe Acrobat?

Yes, there are several free apps for this. For example, go to http://www.webxd.com/zipguy/freepdf.htm.

jamesboak,

Those are the only sites that I have bookmarked. You might search through the tools at www.pdfzone.com and www.planetpdf.com to see whether you can find more.
