You want a honest opinion?

Go into print publishing.

I'm serious.   If you really care about controlling every aspect of the 
printing process, including fonts, line breaks, justification, etc., then you 
should look into a page layout program like Adobe In-Design.  And find a way to 
distribute the print-quality output.

On the other hand, if you want to go into web publishing, then you need to 
embrace the web model of client-side page layout.   Generate raw text in a 
standard format, and let the browser handle everything else.

There is no middle ground.*  Either embrace the constraints of the web, or 
pursue total control.   Anything in between will just frustrate you and me.

*Of course, there is always the radical middle - a native app where you target 
the IPad form factor, which allows fine-grained control plus electronic 
distribution.  But that's probably a bigger investment and smaller market than 
you'd be happy with.
