You can use PDFlib to do this. The PDFlib Lite source code
distribution contains a little sample program which you
can use for basic text-to-PDF conversion.

This may be one possible way:

1. Convert first to PostScript using a2ps 
    (or any other text to PS tool)

	http://aixpdslib.seas.ucla.edu/packages/a2ps.html

2. convert this PostScript file to PDF using PStill

	http://www.pstill.com
	
	Direct link to AIX version:

	(Free for personal/edu use)

I use pstill on AIX and it works fine. The support is good as well.
