How to deal with MS Word docs?

Hi,

I am looking for a way to convert an MS Word Doc into a PDF, but OpenOffice
does not exactly follow the MS Word format. Any other ideas I can try?

Thank you,
Mark

Thank you, I will look at every one of them. But specifically, I am looking
at Linux-based component that I could integrate into my code.

There are quite a few utilities that emulate a printer but generate PDF
files rather than something on paper.  I would recommend one of them.
