You can use Spire.Doc library to easily convert Word to PDF with only several lines of code:

You can use LEADTOOLS Document Imaging SDK technology in your application.

https://www.leadtools.com/sdk/document/document-converter

Here is some sample code:
// Convert Doc file to PDF
using (DocumentConverter docConverter = new DocumentConverter)
{
    string docFile = @"FILE PATH TO DOC FILE";
    string pdfFile = @"FILE PATH TO CONVERTED PDF";
    DocumentFormat format = DocumentFormat.Pdf;
    DocumentConverterJobData jobData = DocumentConverterJobs.CreateJobData(docFile, pdfFile, format);
    jobData.Name = "Conversion Job";

    DocumentConverterJob job = docConverter.Jobs.CreateJob(jobData);
    docConverter.Jobs.RunJob(job);
}

Hi Ali, note that Microsoft does not recommend the use of office interop on server side.
You will notice after the publishing of your website some issues may occur, as described on the above link.
I would suggest you to try this C# word automation alternative, I found it's quite easy to use.
Here is how you could use it:
```
string filePath = Server.MapPath(GetFileName());
var doc1 = DocumentModel.Load(filePath);
// Here the word content is copeied into a string which helps to store it into textbox.
string m_Content = doc1.Content.Text;
string fldName = "~/TampFiles/";
string Path = Server.MapPath(fldName + "Result.pdf");
doc1.Save(Path);
```
Also note that you can easily export a PDF file in ASP.NET by streaming your file to the client's browser. Here is how you can achieve this:
```
doc1.Save(Response, Path);
```

Converting Word to pdf document within vb.net application:

Dim PDF As New RasterEdgeImaging()

     Public Sub WordConvertToPdf()
     If True Then
     WordInputFile = ("C:/1.docx")
     ImageOutputFile = ImageFormat.pdf
     End If
     End Sub
