I just wanted to share with the warriorforum excellent Microsoft to PDF converter. What I like best about this one verses the others I have tried, is that it perfectly preserves your original Word document's layout and formating. Plus, any links are automatically turned blue, underlined, and clickable with the anchor text of your choosing.

I have no affiliation with this site and gain nothing by giving out the url. Without further ado, here is the url:

    Does this one change the doc to PDF while keeping the links live and clickable?

        I have to unrecommended doc2pdf.net now. When it was originally tested using a short simple Word 200 document. It worked well with that. However, when I tried to convert a Word document that used some advanced features like: Table of Contents, it failed to maintain the internal links.

          I copy/paste from notepad into Open Office Writer, format just as I would in Word and export as PDF. Very easy, free, and links activate fine.

    I would give cute pdf a try and it's free. But I've had a lot of problems ms word when it comes to keeping all the links clickable. I suggest that you just copy and past over to open office writer and convert from there with no problems.

    I just use Open Office. You can export your documents to pdf with a click of a button.

    If you have Office 07, you can download a converter from MS.
    It is a small download and a quick install that doesn't need a
    restart.

    Download details: 2007 Microsoft Office Add-in: Microsoft Save as PDF

    After install, you just click on the Word button, upper left, then
    on "save as" then on pdf and you wind up with both the .docx
    and the pdf versions.
