I bet a lot of folks would like to scan things or convert things to .pdf.

Here is a nice FREE program that allows you to turn ANYTHING you can 
print into a .pdf file.
It doesn't allow you to edit .pdf files like Adobe does but it is handy 
for some stuff.

The paid version allows you to play with .pdf files
