Cutepdf Writer is good, free, and doesn't add a watermark.

Does PrimoPDF add a watermark?

(sorry that I don't want to install to try, but I'm scared that I don't get rid of stuff on Windows)

We use this every day at work. We convert all of our document formats to .pdf with this. No complaints.

I'm partial to CutePDF...seems easier to use then PrimoPDF (think it's because it's easier to select default save location in CutePDF...been a few months since I tested both).

I've always used CutePDF.
