First off, Corona688 is of course right. You can't do it without investing some work, but: the two points you raised above can probably be solved with some effort on your part.
1) Most UNIX systems have a "printing system" where you can plug in "print preprocessors" in form of scripts. If you can get some automatic "word-format to PDF"-converter it is conceivable to write a script to automate this conversion process, plug that into the printer queues processing and this way have "automatic word format printing".
2) no. Regardless of what the software will be (there are perhaps more lightweight options than LibreOffice to convert to PDF) you will need to install it. Depending on your system "installation" is probably just one single command to install a package, but it will be an "installation" anyway. You can perhaps - with finite effort - write your own software directly on the system to convert Word format to PDF - it is perhaps more effort than to even reinstall the whole system several times.
Btw.: right now you have told us nothing about your system (OS, version, ....). How are we suppposed to help you if we not even know which system we deal with?
I hope this helps.

cam::pdf::decrypt
CAM::PDF::Decrypt(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation CAM::PDF::Decrypt(3pm)
NAME
CAM::PDF::Decrypt - PDF security helper
LICENSE
See CAM::PDF.
SYNOPSIS
use CAM::PDF;
my $pdf = CAM::PDF->new($filename);
DESCRIPTION
This class is used invisibly by CAM::PDF whenever it detects that a document is encrypted. See new(), getPrefs() and setPrefs() in that
module.
FUNCTIONS
$pkg->new($pdf, $ownerpass, $userpass, $prompt)
Create and validate a new decryption object. If this fails, it will set $CAM::PDF::errstr and return undef.
$prompt is a boolean that says whether the user should be prompted for a password on the command line.
$self->decode_permissions($field)
Given a binary encoded permissions string from a PDF document, return the four individual boolean fields as an array:
print boolean
modify boolean
copy boolean
add boolean
$self->encode_permissions($print, $modify, $copy, $add)
Given four booleans, pack them into a single field in the PDF style that decode_permissions can understand. Returns that scalar.
$self->set_passwords($doc, $ownerpass, $userpass)
$self->set_passwords($doc, $ownerpass, $userpass, $permissions)
Change the PDF passwords to the specified values. When the PDF is output, it will be encrypted with the new passwords.
PERMISSIONS is an optional scalar of the form that decode_permissions can understand. If not specified, the existing values will be
retained.
Note: we only support writing using encryption version 1, even though we can read encryption version 2 as well.
$self->encrypt($doc, $string)
Encrypt the scalar using the passwords previously specified.
$self->decrypt($doc, $string)
Decrypt the scalar using the passwords previously specified.
