    There is an outstanding bug requesting PDF support, it is one of the top
    voted requests for enhancements.

    if you want to make PDF on windows follow the instructions here
    they could probably be improved, i do not do much technical writing.

    i have not tried it yet but using pdflatex in combination with Abiword
    LaTeX export should produce good results. I really want to get PDF with
    hyperlinks, which get lost if you convert to postscript (ps) before
    converting to PDF. I have tested it yet, but i really hope it works.

    Using the Gnome version of Abiword for Linux sounds like the easiest way
    as has already been mentioned Gnome print has built in support for
    printing to a File as PDF.

    Sincerely
    Alan Horkan
