There is a version(last time I checked) which is a static binary with a patched QT. For me I had to install this to get certain rendering to work, and also for it to work on Ubuntu Server. I am wondering if possibly this might help, although is more like a shot in the dark. I wrote a post on this which may help if you do want to install the static binary, as for me it was not completely straight-forward: http://blog.structuralartistry.com/post/2327213260/installing-wkhtmltopdf-on-ubuntu-server > > > Any help is much appreciated! > > Thanks! > > -- > Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
