HTML/CSS is not the intermediate language I would pick enroute to PDF,
unless you were there already for some reason; you're going to have to
impose additional constraints on the rendering to get anywhere at all.
"We know how to write in that" isn't really a sufficient justification
for picking an intermediate language for this task, IMNSHO. :-)
Since I'm about to have to dig this hole myself, I'm somewhat sympathetic...
Cheers,
