I'm currently printing in .NET using the PrintDocument class, and it's allright, but the output is rather hard coded. Instead, I'd like to give my users a way to setup something like a template document, with static and dynamic fields. Then my code would keep the static fields (images, fixed text, etc) and fill in the dynamic ones.

What are my options?

Thanks.

I know it's blatant advertising, but I suggest using List & Label.

It really depends on the requirement, ie if you need to print reports I would look at the various reporting tools avalable (eg Telerik / Active Reports)

If you want to produce page based templating for print, I would look at the various PDF generation libraries available as ultimately PDF format is what you should be aiming for. (eg: iTextSharp, TallComponents, many others)
