Export snapshot

You might want to look into the Ghostscript project.  If you can 
generate the needed PostScript source text, Ghostscript can convert 
that to a PDF.  PostScript is just another computer language, but one 
specifically designed for handling the layout of pages.  For example:

%!
newpath
72 72 moveto
144 144 lineto
stroke
showpage


The above PostScript code simply creates a diagonal line in the 
lower-left-hand corner of the page.

Not sure if this is within the bounds of your capabilities and what you 
are trying to accomplish, but it should work if you can put it all 
together...
