OpenOffice does a good job of converting Microsoft Office files to PDF, but that's probably not helpful in the present case.
The cheapest solution may be to get a used Windows machine -- something in the $50-100 range -- and run it headless using VNC (what Leopard calls "screen sharing"). A Mac and a Windows box are perfectly happy to share files.
