Josh is here in town ( one of the people behind AzPHP ), so maybe you can
convince him to let you use it on your company's intranet.
Also, there are some extensions for Firefox that will run scripts. Maybe
you could setup Firefox to pull up the page and save it to PDF. A script
run from cron could then poll for new files to mail out.
PrefBar is the extension I can think of off the top of my head. Not
available from the Firefox website, but still worth looking into.
Is there a command line option to Firefox to save a URL to PDF?
