As the author of MultiMarkdown, and having generated countless PDF's from plain text and HTML, and not having the faintest clue what HTMLDOC is, I can guarantee you that htmldoc _is not_ a requirement for PDF generation when using Multimarkdown.<br>
<br>
The PDF commands in TextMate that are associated with MMD do not require htmldoc.<br>

<div><br></div><div>Is MMD part of the markdown bundle? Why do these commands invoke htmldoc? I certainly don't believe that I introduced the dependency on htmldoc. I used textmate at several workplaces years ago and recall having a very similar discussion about this then.</div>
