While Office will make a PDF it is really printing to PDF format which is really not making a very good eBook. An eBook is a bit more than just a bunch of print pages. A good eBook should reflow which can be done with PDF but not the printout version. Most eBooks should also have an active selectable TOC which, again, is available in the PDF format but not typically available from the print to PDF version.

An ePub or Mobi are much better solutions unless you have some good PDF tools.
