Answer 1

You can use prawn https://github.com/sandal/prawn to generate pdfs in ruby with some code like:

require 'prawn'
pdf = Prawn::Document.new
pdf.text(my_csv_data)
pdf.render_file('csv.pdf')

There is also a tutorial here: http://railstips.org/blog/archives/2008/10/13/how-to-generate-pdfs-in-rails-with-prawn/
