Here's what I do all the time:
Genereate the html :
my $html = makehtml();
my $pdf = makepdf($html);
Then I runt that through htmldoc via qx() and print an application/pdf header it
actually looks more like this:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use CGI qw(:standard);
print header('application/pdf');
print makepdf(makehtml());
sub makehtml { do database/TT thing here and returnt the results }
sub makepdf { run it through htmldoc like their wite describes and voila! }
