xsl fo pdf binaries
First, HTML is very likely NOT to be well-formed, and hence, not XML. XSLT 2.0 has some new features that enable it to handle non-XML input, but I think you would be better off to get a suitable version of HTMLTidy for your platform. It' raison d'etre (excuse the lack of a circomflex there) is to take untidy HTML and output XML.

Now that you have XML, you should transform it to XSL-FO. From there, get a copy of fop. That is a program that takes in XSL-FO and outputs PDF.


HTML->HTMLTidy->XSL-FO->FOP->PDF

tidy.sourceforge.net - binaries and C source code available
