If you need a programmatic way of doing this, use Jacob to read Excel and
Word documents using OLE and use iText to generate the pdf documents. Both
are open source Java libraries.

Otherwise use any pdf printer driver on the market, just select the "Print
to pdf" driver once installed and print your document into a pdf file

Another solution:

import officetools.OfficeFile;
...
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(new File("test.doc")); // works with xls also
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(new File("test.pdf"));
OfficeFile f = new OfficeFile(fis,"localhost","8100", true);
f.convert(fos,"pdf");

All possible convertions:
html --> pdf
doc --> pdf, html, txt, rtf
xls --> pdf, html, csv
ppt --> pdf, swf

:duel: Well,another method is borrow a software that is easy to use.Such as Nemo PDF.Nemo PDF Converter 4.0 converts PDF to Word/RTF and Word/Excel to PDF for uses of different situations with speed and 100 accuracy. It keeps intact of the original files and supports batch conversion. You can either batch convert files from the converter or from the button integrated in your documents with ease. Moreover, its user-friendly interfaces will make you a veteran from a new user in minutes.Hope this helps.
