I need to single source the technical documentation at my company.

We need to publish PDF output as well as HTML - does eZ Publish have any facility for creating PDF files from the content stored in the eZ Publish database?

One alternative we are considering is to use DITA XML standard to source all content, then using XSLT to produce the web pages - but if eZ Publish has a mechanism in place to do this, I would rather use it.
