Default Generating Print Labels Dynamically Based on SQL Server

I am trying to develop an application which creates free fantasy football draft boards. For those of you who don't play fantasy football, this is essentially a giant grid on paper on which you can place formatted labels which contain NFL player information.



I've already designed the grid, but now I need to figure out how to provide my community with player labels, based on player information contained in my database, which they can print and place on their board during their draft.

I already have the NFL player information in a DB. I just need to design the label layout, somehow dynamically load them with information from my database, and provide the printable labels in a common format that users can download and utilize.

Through my investigation I've found that using formatted HTML/CSS isn't the way to go because of differences with browser layouts and print configurations. PDFs would be a nice solution, but there are no reliable 3rd-party components for easily creating labels in ASP.net.

Which leads me here.

Is there some way to design a label layout in Word, have Word dynamically load these labels based on database information, then create a downloadable document in a format (Word, PDF, or otherwise) which users can download to easily print?

Thanks!
