Could Hledger generate 1040 IRS PDF?

Hi,

I file my tax returns to IRS as hand filled PDFs with data calculated in a spreadsheet app.
I guess I can shift calculations to hledger, but I am not sure about final report generation as PDF.

Could it be done via calls to a PDF library or LaTeX code "drawing" over official PDF template form IRS website?

Certainly but it will be a lot of work and some risk. OpenTaxSolver is one FOSS project that does it.
