OK, so what have your tried so far? Where exactly you are facing problem?
I would also recommend to look at Report.net community form, if some one has already done this. That's the place where you get more experts for this topic.

Not sure how to add bookmark, in the doc my code till now just reads text line by line from a flat file .txt & peeks sending it to buffer where once the page is ready to be converted is sent to Report.net dll, now i dont see any support in the Report.net dll (using reflector) which tells any thing about adding bookmarks in pdf, this is my first assignment onto PDF's dont know much of it.

I've just taken a look at the project page at sourceforge.net and it seems to me that there isn't much development going on in recent times for Report.NET. I don't know if you need this for a commercial product or not, but please have a look here: http://itextpdf.com/[^]. For commericial use you'd have to purchase a license, but for none commercial stuff you can get it for free. Here's a short summary of the feature set:


  • Serve PDF to a browser
  • Generate dynamic documents from XML files or databases
  • Use PDF's many interactive features
  • Add bookmarks, page numbers, watermarks, etc.
  • Split, concatenate, and manipulate PDF pages
  • Automate filling out of PDF forms
  • Add digital signatures to a PDF file


Maybe this library could be helpful to you.

Regards,
Manfred

Thanks for taking some time out for finding a solution, but i am working on an existing chunk written previously and need to amend the code to introduce this functionality using Report.net, yes this is a commercial product.

Thanks again..
