convert aspx to pdf

[polasrikan]

iam using asp.net 2.0, and iam trying to convert the aspx page to
pdf. aspx page consints of some data comes from the database. i have
converter for html2pdf.but not able to use directly the aspx page,
because it has many asp controls.

is there any way to convert/ render the aspx page so i can get the
html and so it can pass to the web service.

Thanks in advance

you have a couple options:

1) use webclient to fetch the aspx page, which will return rendered html,
that you can then convert to pdf via the tool of choice.
2) get a pdf writer library and write a aspx page or handler that renders
pdf directly
3) create a dynamic pdf document (pdf + javascript) that uses webservices
to fetch the database data.

You have a couple of options:

Or even three... :-)

2) Get a PDF writer library and write an aspx page or handler that renders
the PDF directly.

That would be my preferred option.
