print to Postscript and then convert the Postscript to PDF using ghostscript.
No, my Office 2000 doesn't seem to have this

Go to your Printers control panel, create a New Printer, use the driver for the Apple LaserWriter (included with most if not all versions of Windows) and set it to print to file, rather than to a real printer. When you print to that "printer", it will ask you for a filename -- end the filename in ".ps" (stands for PostScript). These files can then be opened in GSView (or Acrobat Reader, I think) or converted to Acrobat's (un)Portable Document Format using ps2pdf.

However, this method will require manual opening and printing-to-file of each and every document, which isn't what you asked for in your original post and is probably not what you really want to do, unless you're only doing a few documents. (If you *are* doing only a handful of documents, then it's an easy way out, which is why I explained it.)
