+## Install wkhtmltopdf on Ubuntu
+
+This was tested on:
+
+- Ubuntu 14.04 x64
+- Ubuntu 16.04 x64
+
+#### Step 1
+
+Install the xvfb server by running
+
+```sh
+sudo apt-get install xvfb
+```
+
+#### Step 2
+
+Get the latest stable version wkhtmltopdf from [http://wkhtmltopdf.org/downloads.html](http://wkhtmltopdf.org/downloads.html) page.
+
+```sh
+wget http://download.gna.org/wkhtmltopdf/0.12/0.12.2.1/wkhtmltox-0.12.2.1_linux-trusty-amd64.deb
+```
+
+#### Step 3
+
+Install wkhtmltopdf:
+
+```sh
+sudo dpkg -i wkhtmltox-0.12.2.1_linux-trusty-amd64.deb
+```
+
+If you see dependencies errors while installing, you'll need to run the following
+
+```sh
+sudo apt-get -f install
+```
+
+Now that the dependencies are installed just run the install command, again.
+
+#### Step 4
+
+Create a symbolic link in `/usr/local/bin/`:
+
+```
+echo 'exec xvfb-run -a -s "-screen 0 640x480x16" wkhtmltopdf "$@"' | sudo tee /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf.sh >/dev/null && sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf.sh
+```
+
+#### Step 5
+
+Test that everything is working as expected
+
+```sh
+wkhtmltopdf http://www.google.com google.pdf
+```
+
+If you see `Done` then everything is installed correctly and you're ready to generate some PDF's :D
