Dynamically Creating Zipped PDFs in .NET

This post illustrates how you can dynamically create a number of PDFs on the fly, zip them all up, and return the ZIP file via a HTTP response.

I’ve created a sample project which you can download that has a working example of the source code referenced in the post – ZippingPDFs.zip (1.5 MB). For simplicity I went for an ASP.NET web application. The only requirements are that you have Visual Studio 2010 installed.
