Install wkhtmltopdf in Ubuntu 16.04.1 so you can use Laravel Snappy.

commands.txt

//Get package
wget https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf/releases/download/0.12.4/wkhtmltox-0.12.4_linux-generic-amd64.tar.xz

sudo apt install wkhtmltopdf

//create symlink.
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/wkhtmltopdf /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf

//At this point you can run this command to test that everything works.
/usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf google.com google.pdf

//Command above will give you the following error - QXcbConnection: Could not connect to display Aborted (core dumped)
//This is due to a bug in the debian packages, or something like that :) 
//Solution taken from here - http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/192642/wkhtmltopdf-qxcbconnection-could-not-connect-to-display
sudo apt install xvfb

//Now in the snappy config file change this
'binary'  => '/usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf',
//To
'binary'  => '/usr/bin/xvfb-run -- /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf',

It should work now.
