Tiny RML2PDF is a tool to easily create PDF document without programming. It

that exactly describes the layout of a printed document, and RML2PDF converts
it into PDF. RML is a much more powerfull and flexible alternative to XSL:FO.

The executable read a RML file to the standard input and output a PDF file to
the standard output.
