What do you mean by programmatically?

I did something like this in the past. It went something like this.
Create Document as HTML. Use html2ps, which is a perl script, to convert HTML to postscript.
Then use ps2pdf to convert the postscript file to pdf.

There may be a more straight-forward solution... but this worked.

There are certainly plenty of them, in what programming language are you looking for one ?

Thanks. It means, you write a program that does some processing and generate a document, it either stores it at a predetermined location or presents to the user. My question is not Linux specific, since PDF isn't.

C, preferably.

That one for example, google will show you a bunch more.
