I had looked at this, but was having problems getting HTML::HTMLDoc from
cpan. This is what I needed here. Are you familiar with how to pass the
pdf created by this into the browser?

Also, how is this module for handling images in the pdf. I have two .png
graphe created by GD::Graph I need to place in the body of the pdf. Can
this module handle that? Sorry for asking without looking at the module,
deadline and all.....

Thanks again,
Eric
