I am trying to set up an icon in toolbar for converting word docs to pdf in
word 2003. I saw it somewhere but I don't know how to do it. How do I go
about it. Please assist.
Thanks in advance,

When you install Adobe Acrobat (which is NOT the same as the freely
downloadable Adobe Acrobat Reader) it will automagically install an
icon in your toolbar. It will also install some kind of "virtual"
printer, so you can "print" to a PDF file.

There are other (free or cheap) PDF programs. I use CutePDF, other
people use other software.

You can add or remove this by opening Control Panel and selecting Add/Remove
Programs and selecting Adobe Acrobat (assuming you have a fairly recent
version of Adobe Acrobat--not the free Acrobat Reader). Proceed with
Add/Remove and you will get an option to modify the software installation
rather than remove it. You will then see a list of boxes. One of them
installs pair of buttons in Word. Check it to add the feature; uncheck it
to get rid of it. See if that helps.
