As sumantra sir points out these are the two best ways of getting PDFs
on most platforms including GNU/Linux.
As you may perhaps be knowing OpenOffice 3 (deb packages were made
available on repo earlier) has some limited support
for even editing pdfs with certain extensions. (another special
software pdfedit tar ball is ofcourse also available on repo which is
also a good basic pdf editor).
If you want the pdf you are making interactive (like this one) refer
to: 
http://pdf-tips-tricks.blogspot.com/2007/12/how-to-create-interactive-pdf-with_13.html
(this blog may have other useful articles as well for reference).

here's another about pdf and OO:

P.S. Happy New Year to all.
