Yes it ca use MS-Word to convert the doc to PDF. You can also use Open Office.

LiveCycle PDF Generator is a server side application that needs to run on a server. You can configure it to launch multiple instances of MS-Word to improve performance.

You need to create multiple Windows accounts for every instance of Word.
