Johan,
    Printing graphics and formatted text fields isn't a problem. I have
several programs that do this. To print a PDF you can either get one of the
.NET toolkits that support PDF generation and make your own or (as we do)
get a PDF printer output driver that prints your document to a PDF file. We
use activePDF composer to do the PDF output. For the formatted output I
just draw the desired item at the location required on the page using a
PrintDocument subclass. For transmission between offices all of our output
documents are stored in a set of defined XML formats and then printed from
that.
