PDF conversion software for Windows is one of those categories where there seems to be a million shareware bits of crap out there cluttering up the place. SourceForge saves the day again: if PDF conversion is something you need, I highly recommend PDFCreator. It is:

  • GPL. Therefore free as in freedom.
  • Printer-driver based, so you can create PDF files from any Windows software that can print. Now I can PDF directly from gvim!
  • Tidy. It feels very polished, has a standard installer package and so on.
