I need to convert a word document to PDF form. On a Mac computer, all I simply do is open the document in Mac-Word, and then click ';save as'; and change the type to ';PDF';.
However, this process is not possible with Windows-Word. How can I change my document over without installing another third party program or uploading my document (my resume) online, which I do not want to do?
Please help. Thanks in advance.How to save word document as PDF? Works on Mac but not Windows?

By default, Mac already built in a way to convert doc to pdf. For those who always need to convert doc to pdf in Mac, you can easily perform the conversion without installing any software.
Unfortunately MS Word does not come with a built in feature for converting to the PDF document format. But if you are running a later version of Microsoft windows I believe XP Service Pack 3 or later Operating System you can shoose the option to save as an XPS document format (Microsoft's proprietary answer to the PDF, which should be readable on most Windows machines running XP SP 3 or later).
Sadly that is the only option that you have in MS Word without installing third party software to add the functionality.
Word 2003 and earlier on Windows can not save as PDF without additional software. Adobe Acrobat is the most popular, but there are some free software options available if you search for them.
Word 2007 and 2010 do have Save As PDF on Windows.
Afraid you cannot do that, unless you have the latest version of Office (2007 or the 2010 Beta).
You can try a *free* solution from the Internet, but I would be very cautious. Besides, most of them either add a watermark to your document or respect the PDF specs only partially.
If you need to create proper PDF files with minimum cost, I guess you can do with a limited version of Nitro PDF Express (save on it with a NitroPDF Express coupon code from http://www.dtcdeals.com/store/Nitro-PDF- Good luck!
I think there is no other way to switch from .doc to .pdf without any special program made for that or online convert
