title: Performing a docx to pdf conversion in Azure Service Fabric
body: <p>I have a requirement to generate pdf documents from word templates and send e-mail as an attachment. We are planning to develop the functionality as a kind of micro service in Azure Service Fabric. We have done POC with Aspose.Words for .NET in a normal ASp.NET Web Api application and it is working fine. Now I need to make it working in Azure Service Fabric probably in a stateless web api service. Since it is an Azure VM and SF has a sandbox environment, I have below queries
  1) Is it possible to perform such action in SF since this library demands the application to run under Windows Azure Full Trust. <a href="https://docs.aspose.com/display/wordsnet/About+Aspose.Words+and+Windows+Azure" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://docs.aspose.com/display/wordsnet/About+Aspose.Words+and+Windows+Azure</a></p>
  
  <p>2) Is it possible to access file system in SF, since I need to save the pdf temporarily before sending e-mail attachment.</p>
  
  <p>3) Is SF is the right place to perform such operation or do I need to consider Azure Web App?</p>
  
  <p>Since I can not find any example related to this, any feedback from SF Experts will be helpful.</p>
