Convert docx to pdf

Question

My documents are stored in a database that I want to send mail with attachments.

I want to convert stored docx to pdf.

var result = from c in valinor.documents
             select new
             {
                 c.document_name,
                 c.document_size,
                 c.document_content
             };

var kk = result.ToList();
for (int i = 0; i<kk.Count; i++)
{
    MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(kk[i].document_content);
    Attachment attachment = new Attachment(stream, kk[i].document_name + ".pdf", "application/pdf");
    mail.Attachments.Add(attachment);
}

How can I convert document_content to pdf?

You need to use Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word in MIcrosoft office dll.

add reference to your project Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word
Check my sample of Code.

It's nice and Easy. 100% work for me.

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application word = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application();   
wordDocument = word.Documents.Open(savedFileName, ReadOnly: true);
wordDocument.ExportAsFixedFormat(attahcmentPath + "/pdf" + attachment.BetAttachmentCode + ".pdf", Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdExportFormat.wdExportFormatPDF);
word.Quit(false);

You will need a third party component such as ABCpdf and (probably) Word installed on the machine and use that component to convert from docx to pdf.
