Here's one way:

------------------------------html2pdf.py----------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/python
import os,sys

inputFilename,outputFilename = sys.argv[1:3]

os.system("w3m -dump %s | a2ps -B --borders=no | ps2pdf - %s" % (inputFilename,outputFilename))
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
