Introduction
All of the PDF writers in this review are programs that function by creating a pseudo printer on your system. When you want to create a PDF document, from pretty much any application, you just choose to print it to the PDF printer and it creates a PDF document. The thing that distinguishes one product from another is the number of available options.
One problem with this approach is that you need to have a program that is able to open the file on your system. If someone sends you a file created with a program you do not have, then you won't be able to open that file; therefore, you will not be able to print it. Since you can't print, you can't convert it to a PDF using a pseudo printer technique either.
The two online products in this review do not suffer from this problem, but are limited only by the file formats recognized by the online vendor.
I've selected the best free products in this review by eliminating those PDF writers, suggested by readers, that were either not free or were limited time trials and basically adware (the product was free but forced the user to endure various ads as a punishment for using it).
These are Bullzip PDF Printer, PDF24, PDFCreator, doPDF and CutePDF Writer.
Which one of these is the best? Well, that really depends on the options you need.
