Sorry to answer so late, I've been offline. It would seem, unless I missed 
something from the thread, that no one mentionned AxPoint. It's originally 
create to generate slides but it can do more. The latest version adds some 
SVG support for graphics, which means you could reuse the same code to 
generate web graphics. It's a really good bundle, especially if you're not 
too fond of coding to the PDF API.
