I downloaded PDFsharp-MigraDocFoundation-1_31.zip and unzipped it. PDFsharp and MigraDoc folders were extracted. I think at this point I need to install them but I can't figure out how. Can someone please help. Thanks

No need to install anything, just open the appropriate solutions (*.SLN) with your Visual Studio.
One is in this folder: MigraDoc\samples\Samples C#\Based on WPF

Sorry but I'm still lost. I have a VS2008 VB Smart Device project. When I try to add the line 'Imports PDFsharp' to my app, PDFsharp is not available. Normally I need to 'Add a Reference' to the app before I can use the 'Import' statement but PDFsharp is not available to the project. Does PDFsharp work with a Smart Device application? I hope this makes sense. Thanks for you help.

I don't know.

In the folder PDFsharp\code\PdfSharp you'll find PdfSharp.csproj - add this to your solution using Add => Existing Project and then you'll be able to add a reference to PDFsharp (from the Projects tab). You might need more projects from PDFsharp or MigraDoc.

PDFshart.csproj is this c# because my application is visual basic

Yes, but it's all managed code - you actually reference the assembly created from that project.

It's called PDFsharp because it was written in Csharp.

You can download PDFsharp-MigraDocFoundation-Assemblies-1_31.zip and reference the assemblies, not the projects - but if you're version of Visual Studio supports C# projects, then better reference the project.

I don't think this is going to work with a smart device project. I added PDFsharp.csproj to my project. I then when to 'Add Reference', when to the 'Projects' tab, selected PDFsharp and clicked OK. I got the message 'A reference to 'PDFsharp' could not be added. Adding a reference to a desktop project from a smart device project is not supported'.

To me, this message is confussing. I'm not trying to add a reference from a smart device project to a desktop project. I'm trying to add from the desktop to the smart device.
