I want to be able to generate PDF output from my (native) C++ Windows application. Are there any free/open source libraries available to do this?

I looked at the answers to this question, but they mostly relate to .Net.

LibHaru

Haru is a free, cross platform, open-sourced software library for generating PDF written in ANSI-C. It can work as both a static-library (.a, .lib) and a shared-library (.so, .dll).

Didn't try it myself, but maybe it can help you
