Is there any way save a VS PrintDocument to a PDF with PDFSharp? (I'm not looking to re-code my PrintDocument into a PDFSharp-friendly format. I just want to know if it's possible.)

Thanks for your help.

PDFsharp does not come with a printer driver. There are many printer drivers for PDF available from other sources.

Cool. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

If I were to convert my PrintDocument graphics to PDFSharp graphics, would that require a complete re-code? The PDFsharp documentation says that "an XGraphics object can be drawn on a System.Drawing.Graphics object", but I'm not entirely sure what that means.

You can get an XGraphics object for a PDF page, you can also get it for a Graphics object (screen, printer, ...).

Code that uses the Graphics class from GDI+ can easily be converted to use XGraphics, providing you with screen preview and PDF generation.
