Hi jayakumar,

You can try to search in NuGet Gallery | Packages matching DOCX , Pdf

If you have any question about ASP.NET Core, please go to the ASP.NET Core forum

There is a nuget package called Spire.Doc for .NET that might suffice your requirement like supporting .net core framework, finding and replacing text in word and converting to pdf etc.. I would also like to mention Spire.Doc for .NET is a commercial & also a multi-functional library, but it's not very expensive compared to other products in the markets which provide the same functionalities. You can download for a free trial from nuget via this link if interested:

Hi Jayakumar Vinayagam,

[iText 7](https://www.nuget.org/packages/itext7/7.1.6) allows us to build custom PDF scenarios, you can try it. And the following code snippet works for me, you can refer to it.

FileInfo dest = new FileInfo(path);

var writer = new PdfWriter(dest);
var pdf = new PdfDocument(writer);
var document = new Document(pdf);
document.Add(new Paragraph("hello world"));
document.Close();

Besides, as other suggested, you can also search and get more nuget packages through your favorite search engine.
