error in windows

[samuelcolvin]

The problem is that this package comes bundled with a wkhtmltopdf binary which is compiled for linux. That binary will never work on windows.

However as you can see here you can set an environment variable to use an alternative wkhtmltopdf binary.

I would try setting the environment variable WKHTMLTOPDF_PATH to C://path/to/wkhtmltopdf-binary and see if that works.

I'm afraid since I don't Windows at all I can't really help more than that, but if you do get it working I'd be happy to accept a pull request to add docs for Windows.

Alternatively, perhaps you could use the dockerized version since I know there are numerous routes to running docker on windows?
