take a look at this SO question. It is specific to C #, but since the libraries are .net compatible you should be fine
UPDATE http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfsharp/ and http://www.pdf-technologies.com/

You can export to a PDF file using the Crystal Reports object that comes with Visual Studio.

The PDFSharp library ( http://pdfsharp.com/ ) is what I used recently in a C # project. There are many advanced features, but luckily you can start with a few basic commands. Try it.

Word can be exported as pdf:
Dim doc As Word.Document = New Word.Document()
doc.Content.Text = "Hello World"
doc.ExportAsFixedFormat("C:\mypath\myfilename.pdf", Word.WdExportFormat.wdExportFormatPDF)
doc.Close(False)
