I googled "word automation save as pdf" and found loads of examples, here is one;

Office Word Document to PDF Conversion. sample in C#, VB.NET for Visual Studio 2012[^]

please do basic research before asking a question. Also note that "interop" is simply a way of allowing .net component talk to COM components (Word is a COM server), any computer your code runs on will still need Word installed and working as interop is just a way of automating Word from .net.

If you do not want to use any 3rd party library then you need to get a copy of the PDF specification from Adobe and write your own PDF reader. Alternatively take a look at iTextSharp, a .NET PDF library | SourceForge.net[^].
