title: What are the available 3rd party options to a) modify a templated word document b) convert a docx to pdf
body: <p>What are the available 3rd party options to</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>(a) modify a templated word document
  (i.e., replacing values with those
  template fields in the docx file).</li>
  <li>(b) convert a docx to pdf</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I've already implemented this using Primary Office InterOp and those COM Office components, however, the problem is that the component is going to be used under an ASP.NET app, and therefore, the Office itself cannot be installed on the server.</p>
  
  <p>So, I'd like to know what are the available 3rd party options out there to handle such cases.</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be highly appreciated,</p>
  
  <p>TIA,</p>
