Or, 3. Directly output PDF from XML.

I am guessing that your XML is not written using a TEI DTD or schema, 
but if you could convert it to TEI format, then I guess you could use 
Sebastian Rahtz's style sheets to generate PDF directly. If this is just 
a one time thing, it's probably not worth the trouble, but if you expect 
to do it often, you might want to check into TEI.
