Team -

I am in the beginning of a new project. I need to be able to present a list of records on an .aspx page. (This isn't a problem.) and when the "details" link is clicked it woudl show the full record etc. (again, not a problem)

Problem? I need the record detail to be shown as a PDF not a web page. I have seen this done tons of time but I have no idea where to start? What is this process called? How would you recommend I search?

BTW, SSL encryption is required and security is to be tight if that makes any difference.

Thanks for the pointer!

Really? It's that easy? It's setup in ASP.net (aka Visual Studio?)
