I recommend not trying to massage your HTML so that it converts to PDF this way. You'll expend far to much effort tweaking things that can change when you switch rendering engines or even printers.

You'll have an easier time if you create your PDFs natively using FPDF or TCPDF. For example (just to get you started):

<?php

require_once('/path/to/tcpdf.php');

// misc variables
$lightblue = array(100, 100, 250);
$darkblue = array(0, 0, 255);
$white = array(255, 255, 255);

// prepare new PDF document
$pdf = new TCPDF(PDF_PAGE_ORIENTATION, PDF_UNIT, PDF_PAGE_FORMAT, true, 'UTF-8', false);
$pdf->SetFont('helvetica', 'B', 20);

// add a page
$pdf->AddPage();

// set the coordinates of the gradient
$coords = array(0, 1, 1, 0);

// paint a linear gradient
$pdf->LinearGradient(20, 45, 105, 60, $lightblue, $darkblue, $coords);

// write text
$pdf->SetTextColorArray($white);
$pdf->Text(40, 50, 'hello');
$pdf->Text(40, 60, 'world');

// Close and output PDF document
$pdf->Output('tkexample.pdf', 'I');
