To my knowledge, OpenOffice does not have the ability to d the conversion you are asking about.
I believe installation would be a minimum requirement.
I note that the link has java in the address name, which implies to me that Java is being used, in which case, it may be that Java is doing the conversion, not OpenOffice.

If you really don't want to install OpenOffice (or LibveOffice) in order to do the conversions, then you could try the online converter http://www.zamzar.com

Install a PDF printer and print to that printer from any application that prints.

Install a PDF printer and print to that printer from any application that prints.
It work together with some installed office suite/viewer: at least a free Word/Excel/Powerpoint Viewer or other viewer software, what can open the document files for vitual printing.

The best option to install an Apache OpenOffice or LibreOffice - if the original poster have not MS office suite.
