Why use MS Office for that? I've built a file sharing site that uses LibreOffice amongst others to convert files to mobile and tablet friendly previews.
Best part of LibreOffice?
1) It's fast
2) You can call it via a simple command to convert a file to another format. So easy as 1 2 3 to integrate in your code. Convert to HTML, PDF, whatever, you name it :)
3) It's free
Also, just check out pandoc. You'll love it. Abiword works too.

#pandoc -o output.html input.txt
#abiword --to=doc filename.odt
I'll be opening an API soon :)
