PDF Reference Third Edition version 1.4 from adobe systems.  38.49 USD at
amazon.com.  I have not used this book yet, so I can't say if it's any
good.  If it's like the Postscript language reference, it's not a really a
how-to, but a reference.

There is sample code on the internet - the source code to ghostscript,
which can generate both PS and PDF.

Good Luck!
