Easy PHP-PDF creator based on templates

Is there an easy way to make a PDF document from a template?

I have a particular layout in word/illustator which I would like to
use as a template and just replace the images and insert the text on
the fly from my database.

The pdfclasses I have give me the capability of doing it all by hand,
but I'm thinking of a time saving way to get it how I want instead of
endlessly playing with arrays and table layouts.

Kind regards

database -> xml -> xslt -> xsl-fo -> pdf

Plenty of resources on the Internet for this. Try Apache's FOP for the
translation. Lot of work to learn. Kind of the wrong group to discuss
this topic.
