In one of our projects, we have a requirement to convert Microsoft Word documents to PDF using the Azure Function C# .NET language.

We are specifically interested in exploring third-party tools licensed and owned by Microsoft, as they would align with our needs.

If anyone has insights or information regarding such tools, we would greatly appreciate it.

    Word interop is not supported on servers, and definitely not supported by azure functions.

    Microsoft only has the open xml sdk (now open source) and office 365 rest api. Neither of these support what you want. So you will need a 3rd party package.
