Make things play nicely in a server context #11

Without appropriate DCOM permissions, OfficeToPDF may not work in a server context, since the calling process won't have permissions to start Office.

Consider allowing the Office applications to be started as a hidden process. See https://forums.asp.net/t/1328690.aspx

Need a way to get the paths for office apps - look in Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths
