I haven't tried this programmatically, but you can export a Google
Docs document in pdf format.
If it's useful to store your files or a generic version of the file
which you can copy and specialize as a Google Doc, then export as pdf
might be a good way to create a PDF file.
I'd be interested in hearing how well that works for you if you do
implement it.
