Need to create PDFs on your computer but don’t want to pay $300+ for Acrobat Professional?  Don’t want to install a 1GB+ software suite just for some simple functionality?  Take a look at CutePDF.

CutePDF is a small (1.5 MB) download, installs quickly and stays out of your way.  If you want to create a PDF simply select File, Print in whatever program you’re using and choose the “CutePDF” printer. That’s it!

The free version doesn’t have the advanced features such as creating interactive forms, digital signing of documents, etc., stuff that most people don’t ever use anyway.  If you do need those features they have a Professional version that is only $49.95, about $250 less than Adobe’s!

The one downside is that CutePDF is not a PDF reader, only a writer.  If you don’t have a PDF reader on your computer Adobe Acrobat Reader works just fine if you have both installed.
