Word Automation Services allows performing file operations on a server like conversions between document formats (e.g. DOC to DOCX), converting to fixed formats like PDF or XPS, updating fields, and importing alternate format chunks. It provides server-side rendering of Open XML files into fixed formats with 100% fidelity down to the pixel level. This allows file save as, conversions, and printing operations to happen on the server for high volume throughput and scalability beyond what is possible on individual desktops.

Word Automation Services is a big part of that pillar, and represents our desire to ensure that the power and functionality of Word is available beyond the desktop; in this case, by enabling developers to harness the capabilities of Word on the server as part of SharePoint 2010.I have a bunch of Word documents. I want to convert them to PDF on the server in bulk (e.g. DOCX to PDF).I have a template and some data. I want to merge the two and create a set of PDF files; one per merge result (e.g. mail merge to PDF).
