It's a little bit hidden, but it exists, try:

fluidsynth -i -a file <soundfount> <midifile>

you can optionally specify an output-filename with -o audio.file.name=name.raw

The output of fluidsynth is raw-data - so if you need .wav, use sox to
convert the raw data to wave - for default fluidsynth output this would look
like this:

sox -r 44100 -w -c 2 -s fluidsynth.raw fluidsynth.wav

Enjoy :)
