Norm,
Word 7 does not require you to have Acrobat standard or professional. It
will allow you to save as PDF/XPS document and allows you to set options for
structured document tagged for accessibility. You can still install Acrobat
and it will also show up in the tool bar and when saving the document. In
Word 2003 you still need to have Acrobat installed.

Dear Saroj:
That is great news about Word 2007. I checked and found that I can add it
to the output file types.
