Converting word doc to pdf

As I was uploading an article I ran into a snag. The publication drew the content from an URL or PDF file – neither I had. So I posted the article on Technology Tidbits, yet that did not help because it had to draw from a PDF.
So I turn to the big giant source of information that starts with a G, no not God, but google search. I receive 29,100,000 for how do I transfer my word doc to pdf in 0.55 seconds. Not bad.

I am immediately attracted to the video where I will not have to read too much at eHow; http://www.ehow.com/video_4767541_i-transfer-word-document-files.html. Noah is the star in this 2 minute 17 second video posted February 2009 where I received two very helpful websites for the occasional PDF converter. I opened two tabs and typed www.pdfonline.com and www.doc2pdf.net. The pdfonline required an email address, I click over to the doc2pdf site and I see pay, back over to the pdfonline site it took about 22 seconds to fill in the data. I open the email account that I provided and my PDF is already in the incoming mail.

Thanks Noah! I immediately continued with my posting which was successfully submitted (accepted is another story).

Here is what eHow says about Noah Blumenthal, eHow Presenter – now a freelancer with a strong computer background acquired from working previously as a Web designer at Netbuzz, an online Web design and advertising company in Paris, France.

Of course my Brother tells me at dinner the other night that the latest word has a converter in it.  I must investigate.
