Ahmed I used a C# library for word documents, here is acomplite solution: Converting Word documents into PDF files in C#.

This works great in SharePoint Farm Solutions, but it does not in SharePoint Online Solutions. Do you know of any that will work on both?

I would recommend using iTextSharp. http://sourceforge.net/projects/itextsharp/[^] That is what most developers seem to use.

However, there is too much code to just give you everything you need. If you get stuck on something specific please come back and ask a specific question.

well i was able to convert using word automation services but now i am stuck into new problem of copying the meta data from source to destination

I would recommend posting a new question because that will likely require the SharePoint webservices.

Hi,

Copying meta data is a pain to do reliably in SharePoint. I have spent years on it and am still making occasional minor amendments. Have a look here (this product can also do automated conversion of most major file formats).

Disclaimer, as I mentioned I worked on this product so I am obviously biased.
