It depends on what you want to convert. If you have a document which can be opened using MS Word, then you can use office automation objects to convert to pdf.
for classic asp we have always used (and been very satisfied with) PDFlib 6.
The current commercial versions are version 7 and 8. I expect these versions are alike but I donât have hands-on experience with it
There also seems to be a free "Lite" version available (PDFlib Lite 7), but I'm not sure if this has sufficient functionality for you.
A free alternative could be the iText PDF library that allows you to create and manipulate PDF documents. It is available in C# so it should be possible to use COM interop to make it available as COM objects too.
