There are any number of free converters that chage pdf into doc or docx format. Maybe you could start one of these as a child process passing the fie name to convert as a parameter.

I thin you want to avoid writing a converter. There's a lot of info on this subject available through a search: convert Adobe PDF documents into MS Word format

Your solution does not involve C++.

Can you not just open the .pdf file in Word? I have Word 2016 and it converts the pdf to .docx when you open the pdf file.
