You can use LEADTOOLS Document SDK technology in your application. https://www.leadtools.com/sdk/products/document You can leverage the DocumentConverter class, which does not require the Microsoft Office interop assemblies, to convert any LEADTOOLS supported file format to any other LEADTOOLS supported file format (i.e. DOC/DOCX to PDF). Here is some sample code: using (DocumentConverter _converter = new DocumentConverter()) { string inputDOC = @ "FILE PATH TO INPUT DOC/DOCX" ; string outputPDF = @ "FILE PATH TO OUTPUT PDF" ; DocumentFormat format = DocumentFormat.Pdf; var jobData = DocumentConverterJobs.CreateJobData(inputDOC, outputPDF, format); var job = _converter.Jobs.CreateJob(jobData); _converter.Jobs.RunJob(job); if (job.Status == DocumentConverterJobStatus.Success) { Console.WriteLine( "Success" ); } else { Console.WriteLine( "{0} Errors" , job.Status); foreach (var error in job.Errors) { Console.WriteLine( " {0} at {1}: {2}" , error.Operation, error.InputDocumentPageNumber, error.Error.Message); } } }

Leon D · Answer

Did you use Word Interop? If yes, have you installed MS Office on your server? I'd suggest you use a 3rd party library like Spire.Doc (available on NuGet) to do the conversion. Office Automation is not recommended to be used on server side and there might be some troubles while using it. Hope the blow link could help you: https://www.e-iceblue.com/Tutorials/Spire.Doc/Spire.Doc-Program-Guide/How-to-Convert-Word-to-PDF.html

Hi Dhruv, Not working means what exactly happening? What error you are getting? As you are saying it is properly working on your local machine then there must be some configuration level changes or permission was missing on your server. Please provide some more details so that it will be easy for us to help you.
