I am making a program that works with PDFs and am wondering how to go about displaying those PDFs. I thought about using the reader functionality via web browser, however our team wishes not to display the print and save buttons. I have done lots of research on this and most places have posted either a 'No' or 'I don't know'. Any ideas from you guys?

My Product Information:
Reader 8, Windows

Why not simply hide the entire toolbar, and turn off printing. Some users may get around it, but very, very, very few will ever figure it out.
Get the Properties (File - Document Properties), go to the Description tab, and make your changes there. You can set these values in batch as well.

I am trying to implement this in a ASP .NET 2.0 web browser, or if possible, some sort of PDF component meant for a C# windows application. The rest of the items on the toolbar are necessary for the browsing on the PDF, so we can't take the entire toolbar off.
