Tables and charts using PDFsharp


I just started with a project that requires me to write to PDF file. After some googling I decided on using PDFsharp which looks simple enough, however I have a few questions regarding drawing tables and charts.

Is PDFsharp a good choice for writing PDF files that contain tables and charts? If no, can you recommend a better alternative? If yes, where could I find some good literature on the subject? A tutorial would be nice (doesn't have to be a sample project, just something I can use to familiarise myself with the library and its classes).

Can anyone tell me what MigraDoc is all about? I just took a glimpse and it seems perfect for what I need, however I would like some more information about it.


Solution

  • PDFsharp is a "low level" PDF generator, while MigraDoc is a "high level" document generator that uses PDFsharp to create PDF files, but can also create e. g. RTF.
