when you close the "visible" Office the soffice
process ends, so I 
suppose your conversion tool will run into a
DisposedException.

You could catch this exception and reconnect when it is
throws.

For the reconnect ... if you use the SimpleBootstrap
mechanism as used 
in the SDK-samples then this will start the office and
connect ... if 
you use a self written socket or pipe connection you'll
have to restart 
the office.

Hope that helps

Regards

Stephan
