Wish I could give this 50 million stars you sir are a life saver...

I'd like to also give my thanks for this tasty treat. You made my day after a server crash!

Exactly what I needed. Thank you so much!

You. Are. Amazing! :-) Thanks!

thanks.

I also needed for centos6 x64:
yum install urw-fonts libXext libXrender fontconfig libfontconfig.so.1 libXrender.so.1 libXext.so.6 libz.so.1 libstdc++.so.6

It is not working for us.

We are getting this error

Please give us the solution so that we also can download and install it. Thanks

@Dipkatts google code service has been shut down thus the 404 error, change url to https://downloads.wkhtmltopdf.org/0.12/0.12.2/wkhtmltox-0.12.2.tar.bz2

Downloads from wkhtmltopdf.org stopped working today.

https://downloads.wkhtmltopdf.org/0.12/0.12.2/wkhtmltox-0.12.2.tar.bz2

And download.gna.org was shut down few weeks ago!

Literally when you want it can't get it that mirror is also dead.

Found another one but it's downloading at 2.67K/s.

Anyone else got another mirror to hand?

@albertoarena yes i face the same issue wkhtmltopdf.org is quite slow it mostly timed out during download process. is there any other mirror to download this one ?

Guys!! See #3518 -- releases are now hosted on Github.

Link to Generic Linux version to dowload wkhtmltopdf

Another one for CentOS 6 Download

Note that the RPM CentOS 6 download is not headless and will need a display to run. Simple enough but a heads up.

Thanks for the dependency list 👍
Same of hard to find.

yum install urw-fonts libXext libXrender fontconfig libfontconfig.so.1

I had to add xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi xorg-x11-fonts-Type1 to dependencies
