Not at the moment. We are currently using RadPdfProcessing [1] from Telerik ($) to do so. It is a processing library that allows creation, import and export of PDF documents from code.
The Unicorn Project and The Five Ideals, the ones framed in the book as the most important problems facing engineering and business today:

- The Fifth Ideal: Customer Focus
OP: actually I didn't mean that literally, but I tried to express how I feel about that and what I see around me ... so what I really meant to look into your daily activities, and see if anything can be replaced by some other alternatives and if so, give it a try but eventually your view/analysis is great.
Fair enough. I think some research in to the actual market penetration of some of Google's non-search products would make a stronger argument - like Analytics is used in about 49% of all web properties[0] but your point is taken. And it's true, of all the web properties I own, Google is all over them.
The 503 is there because currently my blog is hosted on shared hosting plan ... of course CDN is one approach to ensure availability of websites (I've not moved assets to any other CDN yet) but the point is to reduce reliance on Google Services to consider many other alternatives here and there.
OP: thanks a lot paukiatwee for sorting out that html5.js hosted on Google Code still there ... but the main point here is to reduce dependency on Google Service and consider other options there e.g. Google Analytics can be replaced with Piwik[0] which has a lot of positive reviews.
So you drop Google services in favor of open web and freedom... Now you pick up GoDaddy who is against the open web, Why not something useful like DigitalOcean or Linode?
I'm coming to this soon ... I just dropped some stuff and already planning for too many replacements. I just want to share how I see this with you guys.
OP: thanks a lot paukiatwee for sorting out that html5.js hosted on Google Code still there ... of course will consider this :)
> How avoid Google will lead to openness? my main point of view that there are a lot of alternatives there but we just keep going on using what we used to use on daily basis, for example, DuckduckGo and StartPage are there but we just avoid them while we can use them. The same for too many things there over the internet.
OP: Actually this is one reason but too many reasons are there, it might be not that much clear in my post. All the time I hear people from Google promote for open internet and open standards but on the other hand they violate too many rights when it comes to online identity and privacy. And in the same time I hear that a lot, "I can't drop Google as my primary search engine or Analytics etc..." I believe that we can.
You'd likely be better served by including a list of alternatives, if the goal is to show people they can in fact switch. Not everybody knows about DuckDuckGo or similar alternatives.
