    hi i got the answer, if you are using editor, then save its out put in “contents” string. Then following code will work. 

    contents = "<html><head><style type='text/css'>@font-face {font-family: comic sans ms; src: url(media/fonts/comic.ttf);}</style></head><body> " + contents + " </body></html>"
template = Template(contents)

context = Context()
template_rendered = template.render(context)

name="mypdf.pdf"

import ho.pisa as pisa
pfile = file(name, 'wb')
pisa.CreatePDF(template_rendered.encode("UTF-8"), pfile ,encoding='UTF-8')
pfile.close()

    Hopefully many others answers exist but in my case, using tinymce editor, this solution works.
