You can use XSLT to convert XML to HTML and to XSL-FO which can then be 
converted to PDF.
The XSLT 1.0 documentation is at
   http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt
you can find XSLT processors at
   http://saxon.sourceforge.net/
   http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/index.html
   http://xml.apache.org/xalan-c/index.html
and several other places.
A free FO formatter is available from
   http://xml.apache.org/fop/index.html

If you use an existing document type for your configuration data there 
might well be existing solutions/stylesheets to transform to HTML and/or 
PDF but I don't know a DTD for that, try a search engine.
