You can check out the Scintilla Project and it's free cross-platform editor with syntax higlighting support for many, many languages. It's written in C, so depending on your project you may be able to simply borrow it's Perl lexer.
The free editor is called SciTE (Scintilla Text Editor) and it has the ability to export source code (in syntax-highlighted style) to HTML, RTF, PDF, and LaTeX formats. I use it to export syntax-highlighted Perl code in HTML when I post code at the ooOPps! Code Library.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
