Bob,
Have you considered using XSL-Fo? Use xslt to create an XSL-FO file, then post-process that to a .pdf file. You can setup the entire process with a single .xslt file and specify FO post-processing in the scenario.
If you find this to be an attractive alternative, let us know and we can give you more help.

I've used Ghostscript via Sybase's Datawindow.Net Print to PDF option.
I'm now wondering how difficult the installation will become for this VB.Net Client/Outlook Add-in.
Are there any basic page breaking syntax that the browsers understand? Or, can I embed a hidden fop command that would be read by Acrobat distiller?
Altova's "free" custom xslt engine does include this functionality, which leads me to believe that they, but your then stuck with their tool.

If your app is written in VB.Net you can use the .NET XSLT processor
System.Xml.XslTranform.

That seems clear.
I have no problem yet with the xslt transform to html, though it's not optimized for printing..
I'm still wondering if Im missing some basic HTML for a hard page break.
For, example, this web site talks about using CSS style='page-break-inside: avoid'. . .
