As webmaster, you are probably better off using Nvu/Composer also. That
way you will be using the same tools as the students. Nvu/Composer has
upload tools much like DW's. Not sure what you mean by "upload *into* DW",
unless you mean the site mangement tools that DW provides, and to that I
don't know the answer for sure, but I think it is "yes".

Really, though, uploading a bunch of pages is not that hard. You don't
really need DW just to do that.

Also, what was that about "No chats and messaging allowed"? What are you
talking about?

And finally, PDF: OpenOffice outputs very good PDFs. It does NOT, however,
allow you to edit a PDF once it is generated. I think you are stuck with
Acrobat for that. But OpenOffice *is* free, and is a pretty good office
suite, and generates pretty good PDFs *VERY* easily.
