Not that I know.
From time to time I am tempted to make a standalone "PDF Writer" in
the fashion of Excel Writer ( http://excel-writer.sf.net/ ),
eventually using existing sources. Did not find a real incentive or
personal or professional need up to now.
You can begin with the basic and essential features, avoid other ones
like compression, and stick to PDF 1.2, you probably you get something
usable within a few days - it was the case for Excel Writer. Easier to
do than what one could thing and it is very satisfying to see the
result.
If it can help too, there is a PostScript generator there:
http://sf.net/projects/mathpaqs/ , in the ./graph directory.
