Interesting - my goal is to come up with a flexible method to edit PDF
templates, it may be possible to convert the PDF out of PDF format, change
the important areas, and convert it back to PDF with this:

I've done a bunch of stuff with this:

but now I need more flexibility in the PDF creation.

Not sure if I am going to go this route yet, but thanks for the tip!

Tom

There are a number of Unix solutions for PDF -> HTML translation ( and very
few
that go the other direction, unfortunately ).

If nothing else, you could shell_exec() to something like pdftohtml:
