Group,
I'm using VB.net 2010 and would like to convert a text file into a PDF file.
In reading through the internet, it appears that I need to download a 3rd party .dll file. But is that needed? I see multiple PDF library references by right clicking the project name, choosing "Add Reference" and clicking the "COM" tab. These libraries include PDFFilter, PDFMAcad, PDFMaker for Visio, PDFMakerAPI, etc. Can (or should) any of these be used?
Thanks for your input!

I use CutePDF Writer. It's a free virtual printer. Print any file to CutePDF and the output is a PDF.
Thanks, Jim. I'm going to give that one a whirl!
You're the man!

.NET framework classes don't support PDF format natively. As you found out, you need to use a programming toolkit that support writing PDF format.
