what did you experiment with? some typical ways are

 - Using XSL FO, implemented by Apache's FOP, RenderX, and PassiveTeX
 - Using private languages providing a layer over PDF - ReportLab is
    an example of that
 - Using the Jade DSSSL processor, and the RTF or TeX backends
 - Reading the XML into Framemaker, 3B2 etc

the world is your oyster, really. unless you lay down a whole set of
constraints, the answer is "it all depends"
