There are several ways to convert PDF files. After converting the file just import it and define it as a the starting file. If you need multiple PDF files to distribute, use the menu generator.

Using a Printer Driver

This option allows to print the secure file, but links within the PDF file are lost. It adds a nice navigation bar.

For details using a printer driver see converting Office Cocuments.
