Not a question. By "convert images", do you mean OCR.
Convert from what to what?

Most of the tools are not "pure .NET", by apparent reasons. First of all it is related to "docx", which would be either Open XML SDK, Office Interop assembly or LibreOffice, all based on native (unmanaged) code. Please see my past answers:

Also, please see Microsoft warnings against using Office Interop:
