Most PDF generators require to run a server with full permissioning rights, so they must be run in a separte Microsoft Azure Service App and cannot be executed from a simple Microsoft Azure Web App.
The services apps are very expensive on Azure.
We need to be able to convert HTML to PDF as we have a reporting engine that simply creates HTML pages then converts.
Both PDFShare and HTML Renderer.PdfSharp run in a simple Microsoft Azure Web App.
https://github.com/empira/PDFsharphttps://www.nuget.org/packages/HtmlRenderer.PdfSharpI cannot recall the reasons why they require their own server and service (its not trust levels, it was something else).
I assume you guys will know reasoning.
We are looking to transfer to PDFSharp to save costs.
