Using ColdFusion to generating print quality PDF

I'm working on a page where I need to generate a business card from the members website, but I would like to generate the files automatically. Does ColdFusion let you generate a 300dpi pdf file?

What is the best way to do this? Should I make a webpage with the template I want and export the results as a pdf?

I do have the template in Photoshop that I need to use, so I was thinking on makeing a webpage with the template with 1039 x 697 pixels (300 dpi) and export the results on a PDF file.

would that work?

Thanks,
