A common solution to the requirement to generate publication-quality PDF is to 
use XSLT to create LaTeX code and rely on LaTeX's understanding of documents 
and library of pre-written packages to create the PDF.

For real-time web applications it would be very useful to be able to drive this 
from within Cocoon rather than having to call out to a CGI script. As Cocoon 
can only call Java resources, and can only accept XML return, would it be 
possible to write a small Java stub whose classes can be added to Cocoon, that 
would do the business of running LaTeX over the XSLT output in the pipeline and 
returning the PDF?

I don't do Java, so I would be interested to know if this is even possible.
