Unable to specify font and size when parsing html to ftp

[GoogleCodeExporter]

While creating a PDF document, I had no problem generating the perfect header 
and footer, but when I passed html to your module, all styling was removed and 
I was unable to successfully change the font using the <font> tags.

So everything was coming out in times new roman, therefore I made the following 
changes you may want to include:

Basically I have added more fiends to the write_html() functions

e.g. pdf.write_html(text=str(XML(table, 
sanitize=False)),font="arial",fontsize=11)

This way you can specify the font and size of the text you are passing through. 
Changes done:

class HTMLMixin():
    def write_html(self, **kwargs):   
        "Parse HTML and convert it to PDF"
        h2p = HTML2FPDF(self,**kwargs)
        h2p.feed(kwargs["text"])

class HTML2FPDF(HTMLParser):
    "Render basic HTML to FPDF"

    def __init__(self, pdf, image_map):
        HTMLParser.__init__(self)
        self.image_map = kwargs.get("image_map","")
        self.set_font(kwargs.get("font","times"), kwargs.get("fontsize",12))

        (removed extra code)

Please let me know if you need anything else from me.
