How to Create a PDF Report in C# for .NET using IronPDF

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to create a PDF report in C# using the IronPDF library within a console application. Begin by installing IronPDF via the package manager in Visual Studio, then add the necessary namespace with using IronPdf.

In the Main method, declare a variable renderer as a new IronPdf.ChromePdfRenderer instance. Use the renderer.RenderHtmlFileAsPdf function, passing the HTML report file name as a parameter to convert it to PDF format. The HTML file, residing in the project's bin folder, is a Crystal Report exported to HTML. Save the generated PDF using the SaveAs function, naming it 'payment_report.pdf'. Run the project, and upon completion, find the PDF in the bin folder. This straightforward process efficiently converts HTML to PDF with minimal code.
