OfficeToPDF

OfficeToPDF is a free command line tool that automates server-based PDF conversion for Microsoft Office 2007 and 2010 users.
The application is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license and is available from Codeplex - the Microsoft open source project hosting website.
Overview
OfficeToPDF is a command line utility that converts Microsoft Office 2007 and 2010 documents from their native format into PDF using Office's in-built PDF export features.
Most Office to PDF converter tools are intended as single-user desktop applications. OfficeToPDF is useful (and unique) if you want to automatically create PDF files on a server-wide basis and free individual users from an extra step of using the "Save as..." command on their Office files. These PDF files can then be stored and managed on a separate server. This can be useful if, for example, a department has a policy of only distributing PDF versions of documents to people outside the department.
Dependencies
There are some technical requirements that must be met before you can use it:
:* .NET Framework 4
:* Office 2010 or Office 2007

If you are using Office 2007, you will also need:
:* Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime
:* 2007 Microsoft Office Add-in: Microsoft Save as PDF or XPS
Supported File Types
The following file types can be converted:
:* Word (.doc, .dot, .docx, .dotx, .docm, .dotm)
:* Excel (.xls, .xlsx, .xlsm)
:* Powerpoint (.ppt, .pptx, .pptm)
:* Visio (.vsd)

Conversion of Visio and Publisher files require that the Visio and Publisher applications are installed. These are not included in the Office standard package.
