#> wkhtmltopdf

Answer 1

The Unix packages x11-libs/libXext and x11-libs/libXrender are dependencies

Gentoo:

sudo emerge libXext libXrender

PDFkit wiki also explains in more detail how to get wkhtmltopdf working on engine yard. PDFkit wiki

Debian or Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install libxrender1

Hope this helps
