Hi,

 

I am in the same boat as yourself. You will need to use php to extract the information from your database into an xml file. Once you have created your xml you will need to download and install an XSL FO tool. I am using apache FOP. This let you create a pdf document by applying an XSL stylesheet to your XML.

 

Heres a few links that I found useful
