I am looking for a free/open source pdf control that has the functionality
of acrobat.  Basically I want to programatically convert an existing
document/web page to pdf.  The controls I've seen so far require you to
programatically build the page from scratch and this is not what I'm looking
for.

It's easier to print the page or document to a PDF printer

This one is easy, and for knowing when the PDF has been finished, set an
FileWatcher over the document's name, and wait for inactivity.
and it is OpenSource ;-)
