Everything is possible, but why do insist on making your live hard? Just use a report.- use can easily print it directly to PDF. Just adjust this code snippet (especially change the format to SRSReportFileFormat::PDF).

Thank you very much. This is undoubtedly a good alternative.
But I was wondering if there was something like “CommaIO” or “TextIO” for PDFs.

There are .NET APIs available, of course, nevertheless PDF is much more complex than text (you need only encoding for text; PDF requires much more, especially visual rendering). I felt you wouldn’t ask that way if you were going to use a .NET API.

Thank you so much.
PDFsharp is the one for me!
