Anyone have a suggestion for a good, clean, free print to PDF utility? There's a ton and a half of them out there, but as with any other freeware I get a tad nervous that I'm downloading something filled with nasties.
Nitro PDF Reader is great. Comes with print to PDF functionality (you'll have a Nitro PDF Creator options under the printer menu). I switched to Nitro from Foxit because the PDF print works so well.
I needed to scan a bunch of old financial statements to pdf, and I ended up following this guy's suggestion of icopy to scan and CutePDF to print to pdf. Worked pretty well.
Depending on what you are trying to print Office 2007 and higher have a native print to pdf function, though for 2007 you may need to download it from MS.
I use nitro for IE type stuff to pdf.
What's your source material? OpenOffice has a built in print to PDF button that works beautifully. Chrome also comes with a print to PDF option, if you're working with web content.
I use Bullzip and have it installed on all my user's computers as well.
Probably not neccessary, but I'd like to mention PDFxchange for viewing PDFs, they recently added OCR (free).
I use PDF Creator
It has a boatload of other options too.
I really like Bullzip PDF Printer. It's free, clean, not obnoxious and works amazingly well.

I came in here to post this exact thing.
Perfect, thanks guys. Bullzip installed, up and running. Appreciate the help.

Do you ever walk alone like a drifter in the dark?

Another needless +1 for Bullzip. I used to use Cute PDF but Bullzip is better.
I don't feel disadvantaged with the stick I've got.

Little late to the show here but I have used CutePDF for a few years now and it works great.
