How can we create a PDF based on SQL data?

i just wondered if any use开发者_StackOverflow中文版rs could advise me what to google for, as im wanting to create a pdf after a user has submitted a vbscript form.

The form contains data which goes into a MYSQL database and once the user has submitted i would like to use the data to create a PDF.

I would probably be calling this from the vbscript, so i wondered how can i create the PDF from vbscript? Would i have to make an external call to some other program/website or something? Do we need Adobe Acrobat Professional and could it be installed on our server to allow us to systematically create PDFs on the fly?

You are looking for a PDF com component.

There are many of these around - anything that works with classic ASP will work.

This is one I used int the past - AspPDF.

we also use PDFCreator which is installed on the server and works like a printer. The output is a PDF.
