What is it?
wkhtmltopdf and wkhtmltoimage are open source (LGPLv3) command line tools to render HTML into PDF and various image formats using the Qt WebKit rendering engine. 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.
How do I use it?
- Download a precompiled binary or build from source
- Create your HTML document that you want to turn into a PDF (or image)
Run your HTML document through the tool.
For example, if I really like the treatment Google has done to their logo today and want to capture it forever as a PDF:wkhtmltopdf http://google.com google.pdf
Additional options
That's great, I've always wanted to turn Google's homepage into a PDF, but I want a table of contents as well.
There are plenty of command line options. Check out the auto-generated wkhtmltopdf manual.
Get Hardcore
Command line tools are awesome, but I want a C library.
No problem. Check out the library documentation.
Real world examples?
Like we said, if you really like Google's homepage today and want to save it as a PDF, you could use wkhtmltopdf for that.
Seriously, you could use it to generate invoices, create birthday cards, or all other sorts of fun things. Just use your imagination!

Pandoc understands a number of useful markdown syntax extensions, including document metadata (title, author, date); footnotes; tables; definition lists; superscript and subscript; strikeout; enhanced ordered lists (start number and numbering style are significant); running example lists; delimited code blocks with syntax highlighting; smart quotes, dashes, and ellipses; markdown inside HTML blocks; and inline LaTeX. If strict markdown compatibility is desired, all of these extensions can be turned off.
LaTeX math (and even macros) can be used in markdown documents. Several different methods of rendering math in HTML are provided, including MathJax and translation to MathML. LaTeX math is converted (as needed by the output format) to unicode, native Word equation objects, MathML, or roff eqn.
Pandoc includes a powerful system for automatic citations and bibliographies. This means that you can write a citation like
and pandoc will convert it into a properly formatted citation using any of hundreds of CSL styles (including footnote styles, numerical styles, and author-date styles), and add a properly formatted bibliography at the end of the document. The bibliographic data may be in BibTeX, BibLaTeX, CSL JSON, or CSL YAML format. Citations work in every output format.
There are many ways to customize pandoc to fit your needs, including a template system and a powerful system for writing filters.
Pandoc includes a Haskell library and a standalone command-line program. The library includes separate modules for each input and output format, so adding a new input or output format just requires adding a new module.
