Here are a couple of really handy web-based tools that I discovered recently and now use regularly at work:
Upload a Word, Excel or PowerPoint document and this tool will convert it into a PDF and email it back to you. It's free - you don't even have to sign up. Much easier than firing up Acrobat.
This tool is designed to help you "create any size wall posters from any size images", but I use it to print off screengrabs of websites when they won't fit on to one sheet of paper. Basically, Block Posters 'slices' your image up into page-sized tiles and then turns these into a PDF for you to download and print. My only criticism is that it doesn't accept .PNG files.
Tools to tile images and create PDFs

With regards to the first point, recent versions of Office have the ability to save PDF files natively. My version of Office 2007 can save PDFs in Word, Office, and Powerpoint. Might save you even more time!
