SQL Server Central web site has an article on creating a PDF
file by using a stored procedure (and no third party tools
needed):

I have never seen such a connection provider, and not sure that it is
really appropriate, since PDF is all about format and presentation, the
semantics of which just don't sit within a data provider. Not that it
could not be done of course.

I would use Reporting Services (and DTS if required), as that is all
about presentation and includes PDF support-
