You're welcome!

Having played around with MigraDoc for the past few weeks, I do still recommend it, as long as you don't need more complex layouts. Here's a short and certainly incomplete list of limitations that I've run into so far:

- No tables within other tables

- No multi-column page layouts

- No multi-section on the same page (new section = new page)

- No letter spacing

- MigraDoc doesn't know about the final spacing, so you can't adjust say the width of some table column automatically. Either calculate an estimated based on the text/content or space them equally.

- Can't shade (background color) only a selection of words in a text

- Lists can only have up to three different symbols

- List indentation can behave quite strange, due to tabstops

- No horizontal rule (can be emulated)

- There's a bug with bottom border of a paragraph

On the other hand, MigraDoc & PDFsharp as less than 1MB and plenty fast, so it's a great package, as long as you can build some workarounds to achieve the desired look.
