Why?  For printing?  Archival?  Fax?

For GPL, your best bet is a2ps .  You will get a PS file, highly
customisable (duplex?  n-UP?  footer?  margins?).

The ps2pdf conversion is trivial, and left as an exercise to the reader.

Be warned:  Text files converted to PDF do not look nice, the "beauty" of a
PDF page is in its layout.  If you have large files, with internal structure
(Chapters, tables, etc), the LaTeX route will give you much more pleasing
output.
