Before I continue digging, which would you think is my best bet?
I have downloaded 'txt2pdf-9.5' from sanface. It says it has a
30 day fre evaluation period, but:

# txt2pdf.pl

returns a licensing violation error:

This is an UNREGISTERED version of $producer1.
Registration fee is $39 for the Personal Edition.
>From $130 for the Enterprise Edition.
Register NOW via a SECURE SERVER at
$SECURESERVER
or contact $companyname $SANFACEmail

so much for the eval :-(

Is pcl6 easy to get my hands on?
