If you are a subject matter expert, it’s time to fire up your favorite editing application and write an eBook. eBooks are a great incentive to get visitors to your site to subscribe to your blog, newsletter, etc. in exchange for a free informative eBook.
Trouble is, if you don’t have Adobe Acrobat (the full version not the reader) producing a PDF is going to cost you. Or is it? Well, judging by the title of this post there’s a way to do it free.
The is an open source project called PDFCreator that lets you print PDFs from any application that has print functionality. And, it’s totally free as in beer. I’ve been using PDFCreator for years. Whether I want to deliver a proposal in a format that isn’t editable or provide a universally accessible version of any document or presentation, PDFCreator is a great solution.
Now, if you do need to edit or collaborate, you’ll need Acrobat, but for most uses PDFCreator will fill the bill.
