Please tryout the software first and when you find it working for your conversion needs you can order a license key for the program online. Without license key the program runs but will paint a watermark on each page it produces and will wait for 10 seconds before starting a conversion run.
The PostScript 'normalizing' (PSRW-type) license also includes the option to output directly to PostScript and EPS additional to the ability to output to PDF. The standard license does always output to PDF.
See this information about the license options.

Setup PStill as automatic PDF printer in Windows
PStill can work as standalone application or be part of the printer mechanism on Windows. You can print from an application program (like e.g. Microsoft Word or Excel) and a PDF is automatically created on your system or the server where PStill runs.
- PStill v1.65 and newer can work as a virtual print server, accepting jobs from the Windows Printer Driver locally or over the network - no additional software is needed. See 'PStill_Guide.pdf' (installed by the PStill installer) page 16 and 25 on how to setup or click here, here (MS Vista) and here (Windows 7).
- All PStill versions on all Windows platfroms can be setup'd to use the command line module to convert jobs directly, read here: How to setup PStill/Win to work as a virtual printer
