Are you looking for a web reporting component or are you looking for
something to create .pdf documents from a report. While Cryatal Reports does
have a method to export to PDF, my expereince is that the final result does
not look like the original report. Often times, you must alter the layout of
your report so that it is export friendly. Not a good solution.
There are 3rd party servers and components that will allow you to produce
your reports using whatever development tool you choose and then re-direct
output of the print queue to a .pdf document instead of to a printer device.
There is a popular and high volume (but expensive) option. It basically
converts postscript files to .pdf documents and is a fully integrated
solutuion.

Here is another product that installs on the local PC as a print driver.
Simply sent a print job to the "PDF995" print driver, and it creates a .pdf
document which looks exactly (99.9%) as it appear if sent to the printer.
The registered version (no popup adds) is $9.95.
