We have used this in many projects:
This is XSL plus code to convert CSS, CSS2 to XSL FO.

Converting HTML to xsl-fo is a transformation from one Markup Language to another. The difference between them is that HTML is used to be displayed with Browsers and xsl-fo is used to turned into PDF by Renderers.
CSS is not a tool to transform a Markup Language but to style it. You can use it with both HTML and xsl-fo, but that does not mean that it is able to do a transformation. The Language built for transformations is XSLT. This is the right tool for what you want to achieve. Be aware that XSLT works with XML input and most HTML isn't valid XML, but XHTML is. Just be sure to close your tags ;-)
Here is an example: Xslt to xsl-fo transformation
