HTML to PDF Batch Mode Converter that Respects CSS's @font-face?

问题

NOTES: My request covers software or libraries, hence why I'm posting here. I also checked the similar threads here, but they asked for something subtly different.

I have the following HTML page:

<html>
<head>
   <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="font.css">
   <style>
      body {
        font-family: "Gotham SSm A";
        font-size: 22px;
      }
   </style>
</head>
<body>
   SUMMARY
</body>
</html>

And the font definition in font.css (truncated for brevity):

@font-face { 
   font-family: "Gotham SSm A"; 
   src: url(data:font/truetype;base64,...) format('truetype'); 
   font-weight:700; 
   font-style:italic; 
}

The page shows up fine in the browser, and when printed to PDF from the browser, is rendered fine as well. However, every utility I used to generate a PDF from server-side software (PHP) failed:

Wkhtmltopdf, PhantomJS and PrinceXML didn't show the correct font (the latter gave a warning about not parsing all the CSS rules).
SlimerJS failed to render, opened windows, and had unacceptable dependencies
pandoc only converts to LaTeX and requires different utilities (on Windows/Linux) to go to PDF. What's more, it's LaTeX conversion (according to the online version I trie) messed up the fonts as well.

What are my alternatives? I need this to...

1. Respect modern CSS (including @font-face).
2. Be available on Windows & Linux with similar output on both
3. Be offline (utility or library is fine)
4. Allow commercial use
5. Be cost effective (preferably free)

回答1:

Have a look at PrinceXML.

It meets all your technical requirements. It is free for private use (I don't know pricing levels when used commercially).

回答2:

callas software (watch it, I'm affiliated with this company!) has a technology they have been working on called pdfChip which will do this perfectly. It's not free, but it will handle HTML + CSS + Javascript using a simple command-line tool. And it can generate good, print-ready PDF (including PDF/X, metadata, professional color spaces, bar codes and more...).

I can't point you to a URL yet as it's going to be released in January 2015, but send me a private message if you want to see whether it would work.
