You can use LEADTOOLS Document Imaging SDK technology in your application.

https://www.leadtools.com/help/sdk/v20/dh/to/loading-and-saving-images.html

Here is some sample code:
string inFile = @"FILE PATH TO INPUT FILE";
string outFile = @"FILE PATH TO OUTPUT RASTER PDF FILE";
// Save to raster PDF
using (RasterCodecs codecs = new RasterCodecs())
using (RasterImage image = codecs.Load(inFile))
{
    codecs.Save(image, outFile, RasterImageFormat.RasPdf, image.BitsPerPixel);
}

You can try Spire.PDF. It supports converting html string to pdf and saving to stream.

Hey. You can use itextsharp. By using itextsharp you need to form tables and in that tables pass those string values. One more thing there is a library called pechkin which can convert your html to PDF directly. Thanks.
