Dear All, I developed an asp.net application which now i need to build reports, the report should have following capabilities.
1. create reports from html page
2. create reports from html string and directly convert that to PDF

Solution 1

Personally I've that using XtraReports[^] solves my reporting needs just fine. Distribution is royalty free.

Apart from that iTextSharp fits the bill well enough.

MikTex[^] can also be used to create very nice looking reports publishable in various formats.
