import java.io.*;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFDocument;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.extractor.XWPFWordExtractor;
import com.itextpdf.text.pdf.PdfWriter;
import com.itextpdf.text.Document;
import com.itextpdf.text.Paragraph;
public class createPdfForDocx {
public static void main(String[] args) {
InputStream fs = null;  
    Document document = new Document();
    XWPFWordExtractor extractor = null ;
try {
    fs = new FileInputStream("C:\\DATASTORE\\test.docx");
    //XWPFDocument hdoc=new XWPFDocument(fs);
    XWPFDocument hdoc=new XWPFDocument(OPCPackage.open(fs));
    //XWPFDocument hdoc=new XWPFDocument(fs);
    extractor = new XWPFWordExtractor(hdoc);
    OutputStream fileOutput = new FileOutputStream(new       File("C:/DATASTORE/test.pdf"));
    PdfWriter.getInstance(document, fileOutput);
    document.open();
    String fileData=extractor.getText();

        } catch(IOException e) {
            System.out.println("IO Exception");
             e.printStackTrace();

             ex.printStackTrace();
           }finally {

Please help
Thank you
This is covered in the Apache POI FAQ! The entry you want is I'm using the poi-ooxml-schemas jar, but my code is failing with "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openxmlformats/schemas/something"
The short answer is to switch the poi-ooxml-schemas jar for the full ooxml-schemas-1.1 jar. The full answer is given in the FAQ
                Thank you so much. After changing the jar as you recommended i'm getting the output.It's working!!!!. If you have any clue on how to parse docx content please help me out. I have to finding the exact word in the file and need to modify it.

                Look at the examples that ship with Apache POI, and the text extractors in Apache POI, they should give you lots of similar code to look at. If that doesn't help, you'll need to ask a new question
