You don't need special software to convert a Word document to PDF on iPhone. FernPDF runs entirely in Safari on iOS: open the tool, drop your file, download the result. You don't need Microsoft Word installed. The document is read and re-rendered entirely in the browser.
Files from iCloud Drive or the Files app open directly in Safari, and processing happens on the phone itself: no app to install, and nothing uses your data plan to upload.
