Description
I want to know about when will support css3 or do you have the plan about to support css3, because our project have many css3 style, do you have some suggestions to resolve this problem.

Example

Unfortunately, the WebKit rendering engine used is very old (10 years?) and doesn't support modern CSS or Javascript. I think the best route forward is to restructure wkHTMLtoPDF to easily plug in whatever rendering engine (e.g., Chrome) is available and current, so in the future wkHTMLtoPDF can be kept up to date more easily. I'm not familiar with the internals, but I suspect that the current code is so tangled up with WebKit that it is not an easy job to separate the two and plug in a new engine. Perhaps one of the maintainers can speak to this. Anyone looking for a really challenging project?

Why not update WebKit? https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit

I may take on this issue sometime soon. CSS3 support is a priority for us.
