Office 12 and PDF

Dare Obasanjo aka Carnage4Life - Office 12 will support PDF

"... This afternoon Steven Sinofsky announced to our MVPs that we will build in native support for the PDF format in Office '12'. ... It's something we've been hearing about for years, and earlier in this project we decided that while there were already existing third party tools for doing this, we should do the work to build the functionality natively into the product.

The PDF support will be built into Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, Publisher, OneNote, Visio, and InfoPath! ..."


Very nice and an interesting move.

How many companies buy Acrobat (or like tool) just so they can create PDF's from Office apps? I'd say quite a few...
