    Best non Adobe PDF creator/editor?

    As per the title I need some suggestions.

    Need to get a legit piece of software in our office. Would Foxit be the one? Talking about 20-25 users.

    Main use will be to print directly any Office documents as PDF's including CAD files, so it needs to show up as a printer. We also collate individual PDF's a lot. I like the function in Acrobat Pro that allows you to drag and drop one PDF into another.

    we use PDFCreator | Download PDFCreator software for free at SourceForge.net just get a silent installer with the toolbar options disabled.

    I second CutePDF Writer. It just sets itself up as a printer so you can print to PDF from any program.

    I'll watch this with interest as well.
    Since Office 2007 (and now 2010) being able to save Office files directly as PDFs has meant that they didn't bother updating the Acrobat Pro versions at work, so no more ability to merge PDFs for me.
    Yes, I do know it's the internet. No, that doesn't mean spelling and punctuation are illegal.
