OpenOffice.org "Impress" easily allows one to prepare presentation
material and "natively" store in PDF format. File -> Export as PDF
in OpenOffice.org Impress - been using it for years in Linux.
(Import of SHARE .ppt templates works well, too. ;-)

OK I missed some hidden annoyance that you have against adobe. But it is at

Whether he might have an aversion against Adobe or not, his answer was
strictly factual in this case. To my knowledge, there is no application to
prepare presentation material that would natively store the material in PDF
format.
I have used Lotus Freelance and I'm now using MS PowerPoint, both are using
proprietary formats to store the presentations. You then use an Adobe plugin
or Acrobat Distiller or some other tool to create a PDF file for distribution
of handout material.
