I'm not too clear on what you want - you're talking about a form
on the web that when the values are input, it generates a pdf
file?
You can do that with PHP, I think... I haven't tried it yet myself.
You can also print from any normal printer on windows/mac to your
samba printer using a postscript driver using ghostscript to save
as a postscript file, then use ps2pdf. I've got this set up myself.
