用C# Builder生成PDF文件

Adobe PDF格式已经变成很多机构和公司进行跨平台制表的通用媒体格式。尽管我不是这个产品的狂热痴迷者，却不得不接受这样一个事实：用这个格式产生一个协定可能会比用Word还要好。

　　PDF的全称为Portable document．nbspFormat，即可移植文档格式，由广泛应用于专业打印领域的Postscript解释语言演化而来。为了使PDF迅速得到推广，Adobe不仅公开了技术规范，而且还免费向用户提供可以显示和打印PDF文件的Adobe Acrobat应用软件。

　　PDF最大的优势就在于其良好的一致性。PDF文档一旦创建之后，无论是在任何系统或打印设备上，都可以完好的保持最初的页面设计样式和风格，不会发生任何变化。正是由于PDF文档在格式上的一贯性，使得越来越多的网站开始提供基于PDF格式的文件和说明，从简单的宣传手册到完整的电子图书，PDF越来越受到人们的喜爱和重视。

　　事实上，除了可以用于静态信息显示之外，我们还可以通过Web脚本程序直接直接以PDF文档形式输出，不再仅仅局限于传统的HTML页面。

　　下面就用C# Builder生成一个简单的PDF文件：

　　首先，打开C# Builder，File-＞New-＞C# Application，Name这里我们设为"MKPDF"。

　　代码如下：
