With the impending demise of Google Reader I've been looking at ways to replace it.

I've decided that what might be cool is to get an email every morning, with all the updates from the last twenty-four hours, maybe in the style of a newspaper.

That's not a very original idea, since sites like http://fivefilters.org/pdf-newspaper/ and http://feedjournal.com/ already do this, but they both have various drawbacks. In particular both require a single feed, will just take the last n items, and clicking around on their website.

The Pro option for feedjournal seems almost like it would do the job, but the project seems to be dead, and there's no way to buy it.

Before I hack together something crazy I'd like to know if there's a better solution to my problem.

In short: I want to replace Google Reader with a daily pdf email, how should I do this?

edit: I didn't award the bounty because nobody solved the problem (not that I'm assuming it has a solution). Answers like "well for the way I do things this wouldn't work" aren't actually helpful, even if they are well-meaning.
