Short version: does anybody know of a browser that can be invoked in a
"headless" way to "print" an HTML page rather than rendering that page?
Preferably one that implements the CSS printing properties?

Long version: Back when I worked on EROS, I wanted a way to have online doc
that was also printable. This prompted the creation of "OSDoc", which was
used in the Coyotos and BitC project. OSDoc is an XML form from which we
can generate HTML (for web rendering) and latex (for paper rendering).
Don't get me started on XSL/FO - it's horrible.

But recently I've seen good examples of print generated from [X]HTML using
CSS printing properties. The catch is that I want to do that from a
makefile, so I need a browser or a tool that can do that in headless
fashion.

Anybody know of such a thing?
