we use a pretty cheap converter from neevia.com to do this. i
believe it
costs between 3 and 400 bucks. you could spend hours
tinkering with free
stuff (poi and itext...both great), but you'll spend
thousands in developer
hours compared with just buying an inexpensive converter. we
bought it
specifically for office to pdf conversion but now we use it
for all kinds of
rad stuff. in particular, i like the pdf to image conversion.
it's great for
generating thumbnails of pdf pages, for example.
best of luck, whichever route you go.
