Hi @Ajay Kalidindi

For your ideas, first I give you some opinions about uploading word and saving word as Pdf.

Comments are all in the code.

protected void btnUpload_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            //【1】Determine whether the file exists
            if (!this.ful.HasFile) return;
            //【2】Get the file size and determine whether it meets the setting requirements (becomes MB)
            double fileLength = this.ful.FileContent.Length / (1024.0 * 1024.0);
            //Gets the limit on the size of the uploaded file in the configuration file
            double limitedLength = Convert.ToDouble(System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["PhysicsObjectLength"]);
            limitedLength = limitedLength / 1024.0;//Convert to MB units
                                                   //Determine whether the actual file size meets the requirements
            if (fileLength > limitedLength)
            {
                //  this.ltaMsg.Text = "The upload file size cannot be exceeded" + limitedLength + "MB";
                this.ltaMsg.Text = "<script type='text/javascript'>alert('The upload file size cannot be exceeded" + limitedLength + "M')</script>";
                return;
            }
            //【3】Obtain the file name and determine whether the file extension meets the requirements
            string fileName = this.ful.FileName;
            if (fileName.Substring(fileName.LastIndexOf(".") + 1).ToLower() == "exe")
            {
                this.ltaMsg.Text = "<script type='text/javascript'>alert('The uploaded file cannot be an exe file')</script>";
                return;
            }
            fileName = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddhhssms") + "_" + fileName;
            string path = "C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\Test";
            try
            {
                this.ful.SaveAs(path + "\\" + fileName);
                this.ltaMsg.Text = "<script type='text/javascript'>alert('Success！')</script>";
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                this.ltaMsg.Text = "<script type='text/javascript'>alert('Fail！" + ex.Message + "')</script>";
            }
        }
        protected void SaveAsPDF_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application application = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application();
            Document document = null;
            application.Visible = false;
            // open docx file
            document = application.Documents.Open("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\Test\\WordTest.docx");
            // convert to pdf file
            document.ExportAsFixedFormat("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\Test\\WordTest.pdf", WdExportFormat.wdExportFormatPDF);
            document.Close();
        }

 <form id="form1" runat="server">
        <div>
     Please select the file you want to upload：<asp:FileUpload ID="ful" runat="server" />
         &nbsp;&nbsp;
         <asp:Button ID="btnUpload" runat="server" Text="Upload" OnClick="btnUpload_Click" />
         <br />
         <br />
         <asp:Literal ID="ltaMsg" runat="server"></asp:Literal>
     </div>
        <div>
            SaveAsPDF: <asp:Button ID="SaveAsPDF" runat="server" Text="SaveAsPDF" OnClick="SaveAsPDF_Click" />
        </div>
    </form>

output:

As for your online modification of Word this design, I can give you the following suggestions:

1. Rich text editor
2. In Internet Explorer, edit office documents in the browser. 3.Use some APIs and some other products, such as: Office Web Apps Server.

Best Regards

Qi You
