Screw MS Office. Download OpenOffice.org 2.0. Read/write .doc files like you were in MS Office. Export to PDF natively for free. Tell the dorks above you to quit paying the MS tax and get better functionality for $nada.

Pipe dream? Perhaps.
Smart move? Definitely.

Print to PS and use Ghostscript to convert the way I outlined.
