Default OT - PDF Editor

Hey folks!

When you guys make your PDF handbooks and such, do you do it word and convert it or do make them as a PDF and edit it in PDF form?

What software do you use?

I usually create in Word then when I have a final draft I just save it as a PDF using Office 2007 (I save a Word doc as well in case I need to edit later for any reason).

That said, I have recently got Page Plus X6 but I haven't really done much with it yet (I got a bundle deal when I got the software I wanted to create my website).

I usually use Open Office which has a print as PDF option.

If you make or convert the document to HTML, then convert it to PDF, you will have a much smaller PDF document size without sacrificing quality.
