You can try something like this : http://forums.asp.net/t/1506499.aspx/1?Dynamic+pdf+generation+using+iTextSharp

And is it a requirement to render pdf? what you can do is produce a markup of the same pdf file in browser and make it available for download in pdf using lib like itext http://itextpdf.com/.
