Converting a word doc to pdf using Syncfusion DocIO and saving to disk

I am using the Syncfusion DocIO library to try and convert a word doc to a pdf. I am following this simple example:

At the bottom of the example they are doing:

PdfDocument pdfDocument = render.ConvertToPDF(wordDocument);

//Releases all resources used by the Word document and DocIO Renderer objects

render.Dispose();

wordDocument.Dispose();

//Saves the PDF file

MemoryStream outputStream = new MemoryStream();

pdfDocument.Save(outputStream);

//Closes the instance of PDF document object

pdfDocument.Close();

I need to save the pdf file to the disk instead. How can I take the outputStream and save it to disk? I believe the example is just saving it to memory.

Yes, it is possible to save the PDF document to a disk which is illustrated in the following code. https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/pdf/loading-and-saving-document?cs-save-lang=1&cs-lang=asp.net%20core#saving-a-pdf-document-to-file-system

Meanwhile, Word document can also be opened from a disk as a FileStream and converted to PDF document. Kindly refer the following link for code example. https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/docio/word-to-pdf?cs-save-lang=1&cs-lang=asp.net%20core

Note: I work for Syncfusion.

You can use a FileStream to write the file to disk:

using (var fs = new FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write))
{
    pdfDocument.Save(fs);
}

You don't need to use the MemoryStream if you don't want to. You can write directly to the FileStream.
