+Package
+=======
+PyPI
+----
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ pip install django-wkhtmltopdf
+
+
+GitHub
+------
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ git clone git://github.com/incuna/django-wkhtmltopdf.git
+ cd django-wkhtmltopdf
+ python setup.py install
+
+
+Binary
+======
+
+Find the relevant download link on the ``wkhtmltopdf`` project `downloads page`_.
+
+This requires libfontconfig (on Ubuntu: ``sudo aptitude install libfontconfig``).
+
+.. _downloads page: http://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/downloads/list
+
+.. note::
+
+ The wkhtmltopdf downloads page can be quite confusing. Make sure you get
+ wkhtmltopdf (there are a few different libraries on there) and the correct platform.
+
+
+.. note::
+
+ At the time of writing it was possible to install wkhtmltopdf from Homebrew
+ and apt-get/aptitude but required compilation of QT which can take quite a
+ while so the binary installation is recommended.
+
+
+.. note::
+
+ There is an known issue on 64bit machines where wkhtmltopdf will fail
+ silently. `This page`_ details ways to get around this but the easiest
+ way to fix the issue is to install the 32bit binary.
+
+
+Django
+======
+
+Add ``wkhtmltopdf`` to your ``INSTALLED_APPS``:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ INSTALLED_APPS = (
+ # ...
+ 'wkhtmltopdf',
+ # ...
+ )
+
+By default it will execute the first wkhtmltopdf command found on your ``PATH``.
+
+If you can't add wkhtmltopdf to your ``PATH``, you can set ``WKHTMLTOPDF_CMD`` to a specific execuatable:
+
+e.g.: in ``settings.py``
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ WKHTMLTOPDF_CMD = '/path/to/my/wkhtmltopdf'

+Usage
+=====
+
+The ``PDFTemplateView`` takes a selection of variables, most of which get passed
+to the underlying wkhtmltopdf binary. The exceptions are:
+
+* filename
+* footer_template
+* header_template
+* response
+* template_name
+
+wkhtmltopdf options can be found by running ``wkhtmltopdf --help``. Unfortunately
+they don't provide hosted documentation. Any variables you pass to django-wkhtmltopdf
+need to be underscored. They will be converted to hyphenated variables for use with
+the wkhtmltopdf binary.
+
+.. note::
+
+ For convenience in development you can add the GET arg ``?as=html`` to the
+ end of your URL to render the PDF as a web page.
+
+
+Simple Example
+--------------
+
+Point a URL at PDFTemplateView:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
+ from django_wkhtmltopdf.views import PDFTemplateView
+
+
+ urlpatterns = patterns('',
+ # ...
+ url(r'^pdf/$', PDFTemplateView.as_view(template_name='my_template.html',
+ filename='my_pdf.pdf'), name='pdf'),
+ # ...
+ )
+
+
+Advanced Example
+----------------
+
+Point a URL (as above) at your own view that subclasses ``PDFTemplateView`` and
+and override the sections you need to.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ from django_wkhtmltopdf.views import PDFTemplateView
+
+
+ class MyPDF(PDFTemplateView):
+ filename = 'my_pdf.pdf'
+ margin_top = 3
+ template_name = 'my_template.html'
+
