I want to make my Vehicle of the Week archive accessible

an 'universal vehicle format', which can be turned into
HTML or PDF at the touch of a button.
Currently I'm working on a VehicleML to PDF transformation,
partly because I'm leaning towards PDF for my homepage and
partly because I do XML to PDF at work. But the beauty of
the concept is that I could do HTML relatively quick, too.
Highly recommend that not doing the PDF rout for your website. it great
hurts the indexing (and the ability for people to find the page via
searching) as well as re ability for theos with accibilty (like those
that use special text to speach/brail converters, color blind people
that use custom CSS for readiablity etc.
as simple XSL template can covert the XML straight into readable XHTML
webpages, I mean by all meas also offer PDF download for printing but
don't use PDF for site content
I'm puttering areund with a Java Character program myself that use XML
for all it data, i can problem to the XSL myself but I would be very
interested in reading an howto for XML to pdf
