Is it a requirement you start with .pdf?  You could do it with
DocBook XML from a web page, or use PHP's PDF functionality to do it
as well (http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pdf.php).

If it's a requirement the end user use Word, I'm sure Adobe has
some products they'd like to sell, or check out ghostscript for
windows which will probably do PS->PDF for you.
