    xmlroff (http://xmlroff.org) does okay with OpenType forts. A user
    recently switched to xmlroff just because it could handle his heavily
    accented hebrew text [1], so there's a good chance it could handle your
    fonts.

    xmlroff is regularly tested against the DocBook testdocs, but xmlroff
    still doesn't yet implement all of the basic FOs.
