PDF creator

I am looking for a PDF file creator and viewer that is open source and possibly free. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

jdeb, if you're tired of adobe, you might want to get foxit reader instead of adobe.

(You probably already have this, or something similar, but thought I would put it out there anyway.)

I like foxit, very nice... very fast. I also installed primo, which is nice as well. I might keep both for a little while. Foxit seems more natural too me but I don't care for the tool bar... will see. I will try the cute when I get back from vacation... I wonder if I am going to have PC withdrawals? I am leaving the technology home.

I just got in 10 pc's for repair and they look a little old, they are all ibms and my local pc guy is way too busy to work on them, so he gave me a call. I might be lighting up the board when I get back next Wednesday so be prepared. They all need to configured with Ubuntu, I might need help when I network them.

I never installed the foxit toolbar.

I don't like toolbars.
