Syncfusion® Word library is feature-rich and high-performance .NET Word library that allows you to create, manipulate and convert Word documents (DOC, DOT, DOCM, DOTM, DOCX, DOTX, RTF, and WordML), TXT, and HTML files.
The Syncfusion .NET Word library (Essential DocIO) converts a Word document to PDF with just five lines of code and also it does not require Adobe and Microsoft Word application to be installed in the machine. It preserves the original appearance of the Word document in the converted PDF document.
You can fetch the Syncfusion .NET Word library NuGet by simply running the command Install-Package Syncfusion.DocIORenderer.NET from the Package Manager Console in Visual Studio.
Try the following code example to convert a Word document into PDF document.
using System.IO;
using Syncfusion.DocIO;
using Syncfusion.DocIO.DLS;
using Syncfusion.DocIORenderer;
using Syncfusion.Pdf;
//Opens the file as Stream.
using (FileStream docStream = new FileStream("Template.docx", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
{
//Loads file stream into Word document.
using (WordDocument wordDocument = new WordDocument(docStream, FormatType.Automatic))
{
//Instantiation of DocIORenderer for Word to PDF conversion.
using (DocIORenderer render = new DocIORenderer())
{
//Converts Word document into PDF document.
using (PdfDocument pdfDocument = render.ConvertToPDF(wordDocument))
{
//Saves the PDF file.
using (MemoryStream outputStream = new MemoryStream())
{
pdfDocument.Save(outputStream);
}
}
}
}
}
