asp.net - Pdf creation Suggestions -

-

i have small web application based on asp.net 2010 manages invoices.

after invoice saved, should automatically generate pdf file.

which of following solutions fast , easy incorporate?

  1. use sql server 2008 reports
  2. use crystal reports 2008 , crystal reports 2008 vs 2010
  3. use itextsharp create pdf file
  4. use xslfo create pdf file

the point here dont know of above. 1 easy , quick learn , implement. there other solution achieve functionality?

i prefer itextsharp flexible build pdf code need it. port of itext open source java library pdf not 100% intuitive (well c# perspective)..

however said there lot of blogs , articles.

i have found:-

  1. sql server 2008 needs lot of configuration , not quite give want.
  2. you need purchase crystal reports, said quite product
  3. itextsharp - free, easy set not 100% intuitive
  4. i have used , found tough going although possible desired ouput.

edit

for question regarding vs2010, used vs2005 number of years ago basic version came shipped vs2005. according website appears integrate visual studio 2010, suspect depends on version have.

sap crystal reports can open , edit files created sap crystal reports, version visual studio 2010 (and vice-versa), providing fuller set of report design features compared sap crystal reports, version visual studio 2010. sap crystal reports not include tooling support visual studio 2010 development environment developers can use sap crystal reports, version visual studio 2010 runtime engine deploy sap crystal reports rpt files extended design features.
