ASP.NET - PDF component in trust

Question

Can someone recommend some ASP.NET-compatible PDF components that work in a medium trust environment? I read that ITextSharp works well, but from ABCPdf and ASPPdf , the idea of ​​compiling all the PDF code is very complicated. Ideally, I would like to use something like wkhtmltopdf to just convert HTML pages to PDF files (but of course this does not work in a trust environment).

As for the price: free is better, but paid solutions are out of the question.

In case I cannot find a worthy option, I can simply choose to host the web service on a separate computer on which I can run a fully trusted application, but this is definitely not optimal.

Answer 1

iTextSharp is perhaps the best free option that works in a trust environment. It may seem intimidating to start using it, however, once you get it, it is very powerful. There is a tutorial for simple and more complex document layouts.

You can try winnovative library:

Or the CETE library

I used both for various functions in ASP.NET web applications
