You can download the dll from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/itextsharp/and the code is in c#

using iTextSharp.text;

using iTextSharp.text.pdf;

using iTextSharp.text.html;

using iTextSharp.text.html.simpleparser;



protected void Button5_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)    

{        

Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";        

Response.AddHeader("content-disposition","attachment;filename=GridViewExport.pdf");        

Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);        

StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();        

HtmlTextWriter hw = new HtmlTextWriter(sw);        

gvEmployee.AllowPaging = false; //gvEmployee is name of GridView        

gvEmployee.DataBind();        gvEmployee.RenderControl(hw);        

StringReader sr = new StringReader(sw.ToString());        

Document pdfDoc = new Document(PageSize.A4, 10f, 10f, 10f, 0f);        

HTMLWorker htmlparser = new HTMLWorker(pdfDoc);        

PdfWriter.GetInstance(pdfDoc, Response.OutputStream);        

pdfDoc.Open();        

htmlparser.Parse(sr);        

pdfDoc.Close();
