I don't want my formatting (tables, bullets, etc.) to be changed, lost,
etc. too. I need the PDF to be readable in any software and any platforms.

Thank you in advance. :)

There is a large number of free PDF converters. They install as virtual
printers and you create PDFs by printing.

Personally I use CutePDF, and I find that it works well with Office. See
http://www.cutepdf.com/.

If you want an alternative, many people seem to like PrimoPDF.

Someone told me about that in MS' forum, but nothing was made when I
used its printer driver. :( I asked Acro Software's support, and still
did not fixed it. So, I used PrimoPDF which worked for me. :)
