The Perl Toolkit for Unix was the only place I ever saw a pretty good
selection of CPAN modules, their documentation and example usage.
I don't think O'Reilly publishes it anymore. It's about 1998 vintage,
but you're welcome to it if you like. The one book that was in it that
was crucial at the time was the one on "how to write a CPAN module", and
more importantly outlined good module design decisions which I don't think 
was ever really encapsulated elsewhere at the time.

You'll like html2ps. Which also happens to be written in Perl. :=)

I believe there is also a pod2ps as well, and maybe even a pod2pdf.
You should grab the lastest podlators to make sure.
