Now this handy trick will help you save paper, and help you save nearly anything that is printable into a portable document file (PDF). The real great thing about PDF is that what ever the operating system, the fonts installed or the default settings, the file should look exactly the same in every place.

Select as you would a printer, and you've got a PDF

Just today I was trying to get my grades from my college’s website but they didn’t make a PDF version available. By installing doPDF you get a very simple way to create PDF files, this application adds itself as a printer in your system. So when you try to print a page, instead of selecting your printer you can select doPDF, it will then ask you where to save the file. And voilà! You’ve got a nice PDF file that matches what the printed out version would of looked like. While you’re at it, ditch the bloated Adobe Reader for Foxit Reader (light weight alternative to view PDF files). With Vista and Office 2007, Microsoft attempts to push their own version of PDF called XPS… total waste of everyones time. They’re coming late to the game attempting to implement a new standard.
