But thanks, gang--I am particularly head-slapping myself over the obvious "use an image" response. Duhr! You'd think I'd have thought of that one, because I do it for other clients with some of their weirder uh, stuff.

Sometimes it's easy to overlook the simplest solution. Once, I had create a word processor file that had to look a specific way and I didn't have access to a PDF generation program. My solution was to print the pages, scan them, and insert each scan into the document as a page. It wasn't elegant but it worked.
Another option I've used to generate a table is to use a fixed font (like Courier New) and just manually space out the table. As long as the reader displays a fixed font as a fixed font it should work.
