[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 607704, member: 21101"] It's because outputting to PDF is an OS X feature, not a MS Word feature, so it's only when the OS gets involved that you can pull this trick. The source software has no way of knowing how to convert the file to PDF. Incidentally, if you have Adobe Professional installed on a PC (which I do at work), when you output to PDF from Word, Excel or any application for that matter, you "print" to PDF, not "save as", so this is pretty standard.
