In converting a Word File to pdf, what settings create the best outcome?
Specifically, I'm trying to convert a .doc to a .pdf then bring the pdf pages into InDesign in order to create a document in book format for submission to a printer. I did it once and those pages that were pdf's before I imported them into InDesign printed so bad they looked like they'd been created on a smudged dot matrix printer.
The pages I'm importing are Word tables and don't import neatly into InDesign. Either InDesign removes the table structure and tries to make them all paragraphs, or keeps the table structure but completely destroys the formatting. When I converted the tables into pdf, the file was imported in its entirety tables and format within them intact.
How can I do this and maintain high quality so these pages print clearly as a book?

I use a program called PrimoPDF to convert documents to PDF, the quality has always been pretty high.
It is very easy to use. Once you install it, you can just choose file->print in Word and then choose PrimoPDF and it will create a high quality PDF document.
