Default PDF component

First of all, I will have ASP script pull data from database and I would like to generate PDF file from database results on server on the fly (I have one web server only). In some case, I may add 9-30 pictures to PDF along with data from database. Compatible with ASP would be great!

I already did some research on this issue. Found some but I'm not sure what/how to choose. Some of them have a lot of features but too expensive. What product would you guys recommend?

Please advice,

As far as getting the stuff from database is concerned if you are using fdftoolkit(i assume u know wat i mean right), you can solve the problem,-its free from acrobat site, but if you are probably thinking of converting a generated html file(from the db) as it is, i think the best way is using a 3 party solution like Activepdf, i used it, it has some really good features and the best part is, it accomodates all the IE input tags. I think the solution is pretty cheaper too.

any questions let me know...

If money is not the issue you can try Crystal Reports 9.0. I use it to generate PDFs from ASP passing certain criteria.
