These run entirely "headless" and do not +require a display or display service. + +There is also a C library, if you're into that kind of thing. + +NOTE for SlackBuilds.org: + +This is a repackage of the official prebuilt binaries and provides the +same commands as wkhtmltopdf at SlackBuilds.org (which builds from +source). Only one of them should be installed. + +The official prebuilt binaries are made with a specially patched, +statically linked Qt, so the provided utilities have extra +functionality, such as better margin control and multiple file +convertion. This is primarily needed for Publican to work correctly. |
