I'd try saving the Adobe Illustrator to XML (or to PDF and then have Adobe 
Acrobat save it to XML) and finally let flying-saucer have a chew at it and see 
if it will make a descent PDF out of it.

If so,

then you could take the XML, rework it in your rails app, spit out the XML back 
into the 'queue' and, voilá :)

But does the designer not master Adobe Dreamweaver or some HTML Designer tool? 
Then have him design the form in that tool and have him spit out HTML 4.1, skip 
the Adobe Illustrator -> PDF -> Acrobat -> XML part of the 'game' and go 
straight to

HTML -> flying-saucer -> PDF

works for me :)
