How do I create (and display) a pdf page from a Silverlight application

Question

I am trying to decide if I can cope with the fact that Silverlight does not support printing. One option is to create a pdf page that the user can then print.

How practical is this?

(I don’t know match about Siverlight yet, I am trying to decide if it is an option for the application before I start learning it in detail)

We use a product called SharpShooter by Perpetuum Software: http://www.perpetuumsoft.com/Report-Sharp-Shooter-for-Silverlight.aspx

It produces PDFs, Word docs and images. It is does require server components however.
