PDF development... Rapidly?
Over in the world of Delphi, there are a number of great things like SynPDF that enable you to 'print' to a PDF by 'painting' on a canvas just as it was a Printer.Canvas, or optionally hook it up to one of the elaborate reporting tools you can have with Delphi. But the Delphi-world and the web-world appear to be far apart, and I think I can tell since I've been promoting my web+Delphi solution for years and haven't seen much interest.

Help: Windows Server > Delphi Service > PrintPrg > PDF-Printer - How to make it work?
Your best bet would be to create the PDF inside your service without depending on windows's print objects. Here's an article on embarcadero's blog showing how to use a library to create pdf files. If you don't want to use that library they show in their blog (its 80$ for a license, but they offer a trial version), you can try using Synopse PDF or litePDF library
What are some alternatives?
When comparing mfilemon and SynPDF you can also consider the following projects:
