Creating PDF documents
==== How do I create a PDF document from AbiWord?
==
Windows
On Windows, the easiest way to create a PDF is to use a PDF printer driver. These programs create a virtual printer that can be selected while printing, allowing you to create PDFs from any program that has print functionality. Some of the more common printer drivers are:
- *PDFCreator*, a free (licensed under the GNU GPL) printer driver that allows you to create PDFs, postscript files, and images (e.g. PNG and TIFF, among others).
- *Adobe Acrobat PDF Writer* and *Adobe Acrobat Distiller*, two printer drivers that come with Adobe products and may already be installed on your computer.
Unix
