Not to worry...we don't bite (often) ;-)

Here's what you'll need to do:

1) dload tag

2) put the HTML2PDF.cfm file in your cfusion\custom tags directory OR in the 
same directory as the file that will use it

3) An app named HTMLDoc.exe will need to be installed on the server (ask the 
webmaster where you're hosted to do this...explain that it creates PDF docs 
and should not interfere with other hosted sites..they get kinda squirelly 
about that sort of thing...hehe).

4) If memory serves all you do is wrap and beginning and ending tag 
(HTML2PDF) along with some attributes (just like other cftags like CFQUERY 
etc. that you've already used....read the docs that come with the tag for 
specifics).

5) run the page in your browser and a PDF will be generated....you can add a 
link to a  "printer friendly version" (which links to the PDF).  There are 
other ways to handle this...but let's get your PDF created first ;-)

Hope that gets ya going

Any problems...just ask...we'rer here for ya ;-)
