There are many ways to solve the problem. Being a PostScript programmer, 
  I'd parse the XML file in PostScript and generate the required graphic
output directly.

The PostScript program can be run on Ghostscript PostScript interpreter
and produce PDF, TIFF, and a number of other graphic formats.

You can contact me off-list if you need some practical help.
