Personally I like PDFCreator, no nags or similar annoyances. Also that reminds me I should upgrade to latest version :) .

JavaJones:
I use Primo a lot and it's great. Better for less experienced users than PDFCreator (if it's the app I'm thinking of). If I recall correctly PDFCreator is more customizable but the simple controls and defaults in Primo seem to work great for my users.

And just to add to the selection list

Bullzip PDF Printer

http://www.bullzip.com/products/pdf/info.php

I used Primo for a while but Bullzip won me over with its 1 step file process.

I dont think there is a simpler one out there. no interface. no ads.

Primo , verygood , 7/10
Bullzip , excellent , 9/10
