2I imagine it's not a real duplicate since this one asks only for free libraries... – stg Mar 10 '10 at 18:02

To be more precise, used by the mORMot framework, but separated from it. You can use it stand-alone. Free and able to create a PDF from a TCanvas / TMetaFile (unique feature for Open Source PDF units). – Arnaud Bouchez Jun 12 '12 at 08:08

I'm using PDFtoolkit VCL, it is excellent. Works in Delphi 7 to Delphi 2010.

Can be easy ported to Delphi.
The library "Free JPDF Pascal" is written entirely in "Free Pascal" pure. It was created from the conversion of the FPDF library code written in PHP (http://www.fpdf.org).
You do not need the LCL. It can be used to generate PDF reports for Desktop Applications, Web CGI and / or Mobile.

I have been using wPDF for about three years. It is simple to use, comes with examples, and can be extended pretty easily. It works with old and new versions Delphi up to 2010. It's not free but it does have a trial.

There is also Quick PDF Library, which I have not used myself but only had a quick look at the trial. They have a Lite version (ActiveX only) which is free, and which may meet your needs.
