More information required. If you want to produce PDF files from within emacs, there are a number of solutions - all of them need additional utilities, so a lot depends on your platform. Some possible solutions are 1. Use LaTeX and emacs AucTex mode (needs the tetex package) 2. Use docBook and emacs nxml mode (needs a docbook2pdf utility) 3. Use emacs muse mode (also needs external utilities) There are other solutions. There is no elisp package I know of which can create a pdf file from an ascii/utf-8/whatever text file on its own and without support from other external packages.A PDF file is essentialy compressed postscript and translating plain text to PDF is a complex task which would reuire considerable elisp coding and I expect would be a bit slow (though the postscript printing of buffers might provide some guidence).
