    C# Generate and Email a PDF

    I have a C# program that I would like to generate a PDF from a report and email it without saving it first and then generate the PDF from the saved file. Is this even possible with C#? Any advice or direction would be greatly appreciated.

    You want to keep a PDF in memory and then email it from that? That might be more trouble then its worth. Microsoft does not provide any assemblies to make PDF files. You can see if Adobe provides that functionality, or you can see if some 3rd party created a C# assembly for you to use.

      I found some software to do this in AS400 with RPG from Symtrax called Compleo.

      Does anyone know of an equivalent for the .NET Framework?
