You're asking two separate questions, one is on creating a PDF map, the other is a style sheet that shows something other than what osm.xml (the standard style on osm.org) does.
I wrote mapbook (https://github.com/pnorman/mapbook) which will create a PDF using Mapnik's default AGG renderer. It works with any mapnik style file, although I find that osm.xml is not well suited to print. You can also render directly to a PDF as vectors with mapnik, but this is lower quality and larger than a high resolution bitmap. I had a look at the area in JOSM and I can't see much data that the osm.xml style doesn't render. What amenities were you thinking of that aren't rendering? Incidentally, could someone verify if http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/159553109 exists? It shows on the high zoom imagery but not the lower zoom, and the lower zoom may be more recent.

For example, Discovery Park in Seattle is a great resource. It has Puget Sound on the west side, great trails, hidden ponds, a cultural center, a veteran's cemetery, playgrounds, a some of the best views of the Olympic Mountains. I'd like to produce a map that could be sent out showing what's offered. I could just grab a screen shot, but Mapnik doesn't show all of the amenities. I'm thinking that I could use this example to convince others that using OSM beats the alternatives. So, what do you use? Thanks, Clifford
