Don't think it exists a really free way of doing this in ASP.
The easiest way, if you have Adobe Acrobat Full (not the reader only) is to use Acrobat FDF Toolkit, available for free from Adobe. This tool can fill acrobat forms with data dynamically, but doesn't generate PDFs on the fly.

Free and ASP doesn't really go for any topic. Especially not PDF. You can't even find a good PDF writer for php that you can legally use comercially for free. I've used ActivePDF Toolkit (www.activePDF.com) for creating PDF's on the fly and that has proved to work well. But the full toolkit is 500 bucks. Which can be sort of costly. You can get the demo and use it for 30 days. I just had to keep moving my date back and i could use it forever. but prolly not a good idea on production servers.

Adobe has removed the Acrobat FDF Toolkit from their site, and not put up the new version yet.

Does anybody have the Acrobat FDF Toolkit that they could email to me or place it somewhere that I could download it?

Thanks for any help.
