Well, rtf to pdf should be possible using iText - but you will have to ask on that forum, assuming there is one, for help with the library.
Word to pdf will be more problematic partly because you are asking for features that are not fully supported yet by HWPF\XWPF. If you do need a fully programmable API then I am going to guess that your only option will be something like Aspose, but do be prepared for quite a large bill as this is a commercial product. Just as an aside, I think that AbiWord will run successfully on your server - take a look here http://lwn.net/Articles/165871/. As to a fully programmable API well, it uses filters and they are developed and contributed by the users. Therefore, in a way AbiWord IS fully programmable, all you need do is develop your own filters.
