How about PDF's?

I used FPDF very successfully about 2 years ago to produce invoices, it probably has even more features now.

 

FPDF is a PHP class which allows to generate PDF files with pure PHP, that is to say without using the PDFlib library. F from FPDF stands for Free: you may use it for any kind of usage and modify it to suit your needs.

 

FPDF has other advantages: high level functions. Here is a list of its main features:

 

* Choice of measure unit, page format and margins

* Page header and footer management

* Automatic page break

* Automatic line break and text justification

* Image support (JPEG and PNG)

* Colors

* Links

* TrueType, Type1 and encoding support

* Page compression

 

FPDF requires no extension (except zlib to activate compression) and works with PHP4 and PHP5.
