I don't have a solution, but just a comment that we accept a system that 
generates PCL5 code as "normal", but pdf creation as something "abnormal" and 
needs a converter.

What has happened to us to allow this as normal?

Golly it's 2007. I accepted it in 1997. But come on, what happened to us?

Sigh.
