Zamzar: Free Online File Conversion

Recently I downloaded a text document which had been saved in the .docx format. In order to open the document I had to download & install OpenOffice, which is a pretty large download @ over 100MB.

I did some searching & found a free online conversion site called Zamzar, I just uploaded the file & selected the PDF conversion option. A few hours later I was sent an email containing a download link for the PDF file.
