You can export to PDF via ODT.  Use list tables.  See the links at the
end of the following post.

    https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2011-03/msg01101.html

The list items (that you see below) is not limited to single lines but
can be multi-line, multi-paragraph (including inline image links).  The
Hrules are optional.

Some of the attributes you see below won't work on Org trunk but will
work on my ELPA package.
