Not able to convert word document to pdf size(50 MB- 200 MB)

Question

I have used below code:-

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application msWordDoc = null;

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document doc = null;

doc = msWordDoc.Documents.Open(ref originalDocPath, ref oMissing, true,

ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing,

ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing,
ref oMissing,ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing,
ref oMissing);

doc.SaveAs(ref pdfPath,ref fileFormat, ref oMissing, ref oMissing,

ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing,

ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);

But this code doesn't convert big files.

I see you are using a word's automation in C#, I've done this in the past but instead of the SaveAs method I used ExportAsFixedFormat, like this: var application = new Application (); var document = application.Documents.Open(FileName: @"C:\Sample.docx" ); document.ExportAsFixedFormat(OutputFileName: @"C:\Sample.pdf" , ExportFormat: WdExportFormat.wdExportFormatPDF); Also if interested as an alternative you can use this word's library for C# . Here is an article that shows how you can create a new PDF file with C# code . Also in order to achieve a C# conversion of an existing word document to PDF you would do just the following: DocumentModel .Load( @"C:\Sample.docx" ).Save( @"C:\Sample.pdf" );

Try this method to convert Word to PDF in C# which is based on .NET Word component . using System; using Spire.Doc; using Spire.Doc.Documents; namespace DoctoPDF { class toPDF { static void Main(string[] args) { //Load Document Document document = new Document(); document.LoadFromFile(@"E:\work\documents\TestSample.docx"); //Convert Word to PDF document.SaveToFile("toPDF.PDF", FileFormat.PDF); //Launch Document System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("toPDF.PDF"); } } }
