I'm a little confused by your comment. I've been using the Prawn library to generate PDFs on the backend for a side project I am working on for quite sometime https://github.com/prawnpdf/prawn

(Admittedly, the PDFs I generate are most certainly not beautiful, so maybe that's the difference)

Prawn really is great. I use it to generate invoices and for exporting a billing overview in client projects. And it’s quite fast as well, since it generates the PDF directly without the need to spin up a browser.

Lots of people are already really comfortable with html/css, so having the option to avoid learning an entirely new paradigm is helpful.
