What exactly are you trying to do? Every Linux application prints to
Postscript, and you can easily convert Postscript to PDF.
In addition, if you want to save license costs in your organization, you

Postscript printer, and then

Actually there are quit a few on Windows that convert many file types:
Microsoft Office Apps, Text, HTML. Some are free others aren't. A few

It may just be easier to buy one of these and run it on a windows
machine. :-(

If it can be remotely controlled it can be a solution. Just run Xvfb on
your server and you're set.
