[Andrew Banks]

Can anyone offer any suggestions on how to create a PDF from ASP.NET without
having to install anything on the server.

Thanks in advance

You may need to repair your IIS mappings.
To do this, run the following command:
aspnet_regiis.exe -i

Here's further information:

If this does not work, please give us more details about the symptoms.

When you say no software do you mean, no new non preinstalled .NET
assemblies?

PDF is simple terms is a text format for simple documents you can just write
text out and work out what goes where by looking at other PDF files.
or... you can install the PDF distiller, this allows you to print to a
printer and the distiller creates a file, or..... you can get 3rd party .net
libraries to create PDFs.

option 2 and 3 may break the 'cannot install' rule, but.... you can install
the PDF distiller on ANY Server not just the server with IIS.

The Crystal Reports engine comes with .NET. Its not exactly a dream to
use, but Ive found several purposes for it. It can generate PDF files,
and can stream them to the browser too.

The Ibex XSL-FO Formatter will create PDF files from XML. You can install
the single .NET Assembly using FTP, without running an installation program
on the server. Not sure if thats what you meant.

Ibex is at http://ww.xmlpdf.com/ibex.html
