Document generation software?
===

We have an application written in PHP with a MySQL 5 database. We need to be able to generate documents using data in our database (customer documents like financials, signature pages, etc.). We'd like to initiate the process via our application, pass data to a document generation server (XML maybe), then retrieve a PDF (or .tif, .doc, .xls, etc.) of the generated document. This doesn't have to be a PHP class or anything--we just want something that works well and doesn't rely on PHP to function. We're a Windows shop--no Linux. We've been experimenting with PrinceXML, but it requires us to generate a web page for each page of the document. While this is okay, we'd prefer something a little more robust. I appreciate any suggestions you can offer.
