After investigating options for generation of a PDF document of tabular data for a DotNetNuke module I was developing, I decided to write my own based on the open source iTextSharp project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/itextsharp). The result is the WESNet PDFGenerator. Although it was written only to satisfy the needs at the time, I have received a number of requests from other developers to share the source code as an example of what can be done with iTextSharp. I am happy to do so, but consider it a project far from completed, having many deficiencies and bugs, and lacking of my time to provide any support. Below is an example of what can be done with PDFGenerator and the XML files that define each of the five reports. Both source code (VB.NET/VS 2003) and install .zip files may be obtained from the Downloads section of this site if you are a registered user.
