If the output format can be Postscript/PDF, you can try to generate LaTeX sources through scripting, and then pass the output to LaTeX to convert into PS/PDF. In the university that I studied in, I know of one department which creates shell accounts with random passwords and issues corresponding password sheets in this way. A text-based doc with an image logo. The pdflatex program understands .png and .jpg natively.

If LaTeX appears too hardcore, docbook can be an alternative, though that is not straightforward either.
