Well, as long as the answer to Nick's frustrations with Office 2007 is to suggest an entirely different office package (Open Office, which I was forced by Sun Microsystems to use, and found it to be a turd, but that was about 5 years ago), it is probably OK for me to say that the best/most cost-effective PDF output I've obtained comes free via the "Preview" button on every Mac OS X print dialog, and works in every application, not just Office.
