Yes, but you'll have to implement this service by yourself.

No packaging. It's just a .dll.

Why not give it a try by downloading

The core of our XMLmind XSL-FO Converter product is the *Engine*.

The Engine is a software component, available as a .jar file (Java 
version) or as a .dll file (.NET version). It allows to convert XSL-FO 
to a number of word processor file formats (e.g. .docx).

The Engine is intended to be embedded in a Java or a .NET application. 
This embedding task requires Java or .NET programming skills (depending 
on your application).

Because not everyone has programming skills, we have developed two Java 
applications embedding the Java version of XMLmind XSL-FO Converter:

XMLmind XSL Utility, a desktop application.
http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/xsl_utility.html

XMLmind XSL Server, a web application running in a (Java) Servlet container.
http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/xsl_server.html

There is no .NET equivalent of XMLmind XSL Utility and XMLmind XSL 
Server. However if you purchase the Engine .NET version, you 
nevertheless get XMLmind XSL Utility and XMLmind XSL Server, two Java 
applications, at no extra cost, just in case they could be useful (for 
testing, to experiment, etc).
