it seems this is your first DITA customization. It be honest, what you want to do is not that easy as you probably expect. For achieving what you want, you should create a DITA-OT plugin, that overrides the default PDF-Plugin org.dita.pdf2. You have to write XSLT code! Please firstly read the Customizing PDF output documentation of the DITA-OT. Then you should generate a PDF plugin stub using the DITA-Generator.

When you're done, call back. :)
