Creating a PDF file from Visual Studio 2008 & SQL

Hi,

I’m starting a new application that will create pdf reports from data in a SQL database.

I’ll also be adding jpg’s to the pdf.


What VS 2008 objects should I use that are most compatible with making pdf files with your pdf writer?

What’s the algorithm for creating a pdf:

1) Create SQL dataset
2) Convert dataset to … ???
etc.

Any other tips and tricks to help me get started?

Hello Andy,

Thanks for considering Aspose.
