Hi,
we have a similar problem for WO generated forms, reports, etc. One idea
is the following:
Capture the HTML output from a generated page and save this to an HTML
temp file, automate Safari or FireFox to open and print this document
via AppleScript, capture the PostScript output via a cups backend filter
and convert it via the OS X "pstopdf" tool or Distiller into PDF.
I would prefer FireFox because in printouts the page wraps of tables
better than Safari.
Are there any better ideas?

I know of FOP, but just found iText
http://www.lowagie.com/iText/
iText seems to be well documented and feature rich. At least for my
second task, this might be a good solution to further evaluate options.
My PDFs need to be high-resolution to be printed on high-resolution
imaging/printing machine.
But: Do we have a PDF lib, which especially integrates well with WO?
