Yes, I have tried it, and got a very large, unpaginated image of it.

Would you possibly be able to send me the url for the page your tried
(off list), as well as the output? (Perhaps plus the version of
phantomjs, OS, and the js script or a link to it?)

That would be very helpful. I'll try to generate it for the same url,
and see how the output differs.

Thanks!
Bjoern
