You have to have the upgraded version of Adobe Acrobat to do it -- the freeware version isn't enabled with that function.

Check out this site, it might be able to help you. It seems you can sign up for a "five free pdfs" thing and create some files online.

there's plenty of free software out there that will let you make a PDF of virtually anything you can print from word or any other program.

Google primoPDF. it's free.

CutePDF will let you "print" your job to a .pdf file.

CutePDF - Create PDF for free, Free PDF Utilities, Save PDF Forms, Edit PDF easily.

You just select the CutePDF printer like you would a normal printer and choose the output destination.

Cool, you've finished already.

Hanbali, are you going to be selling your book, or will it be available somewhere on the Net? If its the latter, flex us the link. If it's the former, flex a brother the desi discount.

You get the Word file to say the shahadah in front of witness, and then announce it to the community.

Wa Alaykum as-Salam,

Actually the way it works is that the dawah group I work for is funded by some rich Arabs. I sold them my book. They'll put it up on their site insha-Allah. As such, they reserve all rights and I'm not allowed to post the book up anywhere else on any other site.

Anyways, the book will take some time before it's finally up. If you want a "bootleg copy" lol, then I can email you a copy. I just can't put it up on the net anywhere.

I can email anyone who wants to take a look-see. In fact, I'd love to get some opinions before the e-book goes up. I'm warning you though, it's a bit long...166 pages long.

Dang homie, that is a proper book! Must have taken you ages. Mashallah, may Allah reward you for your efforts.

Barakh-Allah Feek. Please let me know of any spelling or formatting mistakes. Especially if the title of a section appears and the first line of the text appears on the next page...I HATE when that happens. It's taking me forever to fix that.

Also, Jam, let me know if you think the tone is appropriate. Is it dawah-appropriate? Not my raging Islamican self and stuff...
