I don't know if this is the right forum... Anyway, I have a data base and the data inside should be printed on special form which is mandatory (it has to be on a A4 paper, tabels have to have a fixed width and height - like, for instance, bank forms). From inside Access I could create a Report with this design, but I want clients to be able to print it directly from web (and the db is not Access, but SQL server in 1 case and MySQL in the other). Any ideas?

I tried a PDF component before and found them not to be too reliable so I ended up using Crystal Reports which worked pretty good.

Well, this is to be release in the near future and come from a reputed ASP component maker so chances are that this could be something better than what you experienced.

Well is not the component that is the problem is pdf itself, personally I think pdf formatting is somewhat catchy. Anyway, hope it works out for you.
