Does anybody can recommend any tool to handle the following PDF functionality:

1.- PDF Viewer: A control that allow you to view and save PDF in a WinForm. The idea is to replace the need for full Acrobat product.

2.- PDF Form Filler: A control to allow you to fill PDF forms with data from a WinForm.

3.- PDF Print: A control to print PDF forms.



I know there are some well known products from Amyuni and ceTeSofware but their prices are a bit higher for me and they have some sort of runtime license requirements which I don't quite understand yet.

Hi Edhy -



I've been doing a lot of this lately. iTextsharper will handle the form-filling elegantly. Be happy to share whatever vb code you need. The Foxit Phantom suite is $129 and will do pretty much everything acrobat will do for creating/modifying the pdf forms.



Filling in the forms is very cool once you get the hang of it.



And, as you probably know, just to let the end user bring up a PDF to view or print you can use System.Diagnostics.Process.start(pdfname)
