OpenOffice has an option to export directly to PDF. It's worked pretty well whenever I've needed to use it.

Yeah, Open office pdf converter is really good.
If you preffer the hard way... start learning LaTex.

dvipdf will convert the dvi document to pdf.

There's various programs out there named whatevahtopdf or whatevah2pdf.

Also, named a bit differently, there's this http://www.easysw.com/htmldoc/ which converts html to pdf.

And, of course, you can write your docs in sgml/xml (google for linuxdoc and docbook), and process your docs into all sorts of formats, including pdf.
