PDF-Output isn't always accurate, the quality of PDFs produced with OpenOffice is better. Anyway, it's free and good enough for most purposes.

good

I find the features better than average and get very good results for standard pdf creation.

I can not go together with Anonymous on Januar 4, 2007. I use PDFCreator because OOo fails on specific Fonts (Adobe pfm/pfb) and has an enourmous filesize on it's PDFs. PDFCreator is a top-performer here: Small filesize and all Fonts are displayed.

Some fonts reproduced in the PDF document are not particularly sharp but overall, a great tool!

Awesome. I use OpenOffice.org as my office suite of choice. But that does me no good inside something like Firefox or Internet Explorer. At work, I luckily have a copy of Acrobat 7.0 and I can use its Distiller for that. At home, I am not spending that sort of money for it. I can print a website (like an order confirmation or email or something) to a PDF using PDFCreator. Not requiring a printer connected to my non-work systems is fantastic.

this is _not_ open source, so remove this tool or at least correct the description
