C# free Doc 2 PDF solution

would anyone suggest a free solution to programmatically convert Office documents (mostly .doc) to PDF in the form of a .NET library or a command-line application i can call from my program? Thanks

PS: I know I can use SaveAs PDF in newer versions of Office, but some of the clients where the program will run still have older versions of Office.

Won't GhostScript (GhostScript Website) do that for you? Otherwise, I think, under reserves, that PDFSharp might do it. If these won't do, I hope that this one will: PDFCreate. In fact, after a closer look, if Ghostcript won't do, I would perhaps consider trying PDFCreate as it provides some sample code on the wbesite I linked for it.

You might also want to consult Wikipedia on the topic: List of PDF software

You can maybe use something like PrimoPDF which basically installs a printer that when you print to it, creates a PDF document. I've never actually called it command line but since it's just another printer, any standard print code would work.
