It sounds like to just need to break your content up into passage
blocks, then maintain a list of which blocks go in which order on
which pages. PDF-ing the pages doesn't seem like it will gain you much
here, since you're not necessarily interested in keeping a physical
representation of the original page.
You haven't said if you're using a CMS now that needs this feature
added to it, or designing one from the ground up.
