Making a pdf file easily in asp.net with formatting options for datagrids

Question

I'm looking for an easy way of printing output to a pdf file for users, especially data grids. Formatting options would be a plus.

Potential scenario -> Users view page with 2 data grids -> Users click print -> Page opens a pdf file that they can save/print

Our budget is tight, so a free solution would be ideal, but I'd like to look into and evaluate any other solutions as well.

Thanks for the help!
