There are some third party SDK's which give support for the .Net Core. One of them is ByteScout. You can use their SDK and can generate PDF in .Net core. You can find the sample code under this link. https://bytescout.com/articles/pdf-sdk-c-net-core-2-0-document-create-new Furthermore you can convert your docx to pdf please follow the code given under this link https://bytescout.com/articles/pdf-sdk-c-convert-docx-to-pdf using (DocxToPdfConverter converter = new DocxToPdfConverter()) { converter.PageSize = PaperKind.A4; converter.Orientation = PaperOrientation.Portrait; converter.Footer =  FOOTER TEXT  ; converter.ConvertDocxToPdf( sample.docx  result.pdf ); } // Open result document in default associated application (for demo purpose) ProcessStartInfo processStartInfo = new ProcessStartInfo( result.pdf ); processStartInfo.UseShellExecute = true ; Process.Start(processStartInfo);

If you want to do this without using any additional libraries in your project you can try LEADTOOLS Cloud Services that support conversion to different document formats through native .NET classes JavaScript (Node.js) and others. The following code shows how you can submit a conversion request using C#: public async Task ConvertFile() { var client = InitClient(); int firstPage = 1; int lastPage = -1; // set the Target format to PDF int fileFormat = 4; //If uploading a file as multi-part content: HttpContent byteContent = new ByteArrayContent(File.ReadAllBytes(@ path/to/file )); byteContent.Headers.ContentDisposition = new ContentDispositionHeaderValue( form-data ) { Name = attachment  FileName = file-name }; var formData = new MultipartFormDataContent(); formData.Add(byteContent formFieldName ); string conversionUrl = string .Format( Conversion/Convert?firstPage={0}&lastPage={1}&format={2}  firstPage lastPage fileFormat); var result = await client.PostAsync(conversionUrl formData); formData.Dispose(); // If using URL to the file /* string fileURL = https://AddressOfSite/source.doc; string conversionUrl = string.Format(Conversion/Convert?firstPage={0}&lastPage={1}&fileurl={2}&format={3} firstPage lastPage fileURL fileFormat); var result = await client.PostAsync(conversionUrl null); */ if (result.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK) { //Unique ID returned by the services string id = await result.Content.ReadAsStringAsync(); Console.WriteLine( Unique ID returned by the services:  + id); await Query(id client); } else Console.WriteLine( Request failed with the following response:  + result.StatusCode); } You can find more details with full sample code here: https://services.leadtools.com/documentation/api-reference/convert https://services.leadtools.com/documentation/tutorials/net-cs-conversion-tutorial

It doesn't looks straight forward i.e. you may need HTML in between. If format is .docx OpenXML can be used in .NET framework not in .NET Core though. Please read this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46580718/convert-word-doc-and-docx-format-to-pdf-in-net-core-without-microsoft-office-in
