I converted my resume to markdown earlier this year, but I've just been using OS X's Print To PDF feature for conversion from HTML to PDF. How does the quality from Pandoc compare?
Pandoc's PDF quality is astounding if you're willing to accept that it goes through a LaTeX intermediary. I recently fought with this while building Docverter[1], my online document conversion service. I ended up using an HTML intermediary so users could style with CSS. If you want to see what Docverter's quality looks like, you can check out the PDF of my resume here: http://bugsplat.info/resume.pdf

Pandoc does not do the typesetting, Latex does. So if you like latex, you will like the pdf output. Respectfully, to others who have commented on html->pdf, html does not compare to latex typesetting.
I'm hoping to be able to contribute some latex tweaks later this week to the pandoc template.
