Create a PDF from the server...

    I have a large report built using ASP.NET which produces the results in HTML format.

    Users currently just print the document off as a PDF client-side.

    I would like to simply add a button to this page which would allow users to download the report as PDF. Is this possible?

    I dont have the time to actually create the PDF document programatically.

    Thanks

    I have tried this by ITextSharp .I learned ,it is a library integrated to create PDF documents.With all the primitive functions necessary you can create a PDF document.You can also download the class files from open file download sites.
