Answer 1

If you want a lot of painstaking work - create your own html -> pdf converter using PDFSharp ( http://pdfsharp.com/ ). However, depending on the usage, I've heard using the internet explorer COM is a good solution. You can always print an HTML page to a virtual PDF printer.

Answer 2

Use PDFizer , whenever you have valid xHTML (which you should always have).

It's pretty much the most reliable library out there.
