Drag the items into Word, edit -->print to pdf using free GhostScript.
To revise document, edit the word file, print again to PDF for new version.
No difference between this and the way most people use Acrobat. PDF is a
distribution medium, not a creative one. PDF= Portable Document Format. No
matter what, you must first have a document needing conversion to PDF.
Dragging an item direct to PDF is moot as most documents require at least a
line or two of text and most items would indeed already be documents rather
than simple image files.
